Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Online Therapy
Welcome! As a holistically focused Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I aim to work alongside my clients in building their confidence and empowering them to take an active role in improving their relationships and overall wellbeing. I work with a range of adults who are experiencing challenges ranging from relationship challenges, to low self-esteem, to coping with stress, or symptoms of anxiety and depression. As a clinician who identifies as a woman of color, I work to understand my clients through a culturally competent lens, considering how race, culture, identity, biology and family have shaped their unique experiences and lives. Utilizing approaches such as CBT, EFT, and Mindfulness as well as integrating physical and nutritional components, I foster an environment that treats the whole person and emphasizes the inextricable link between our social, physical and mental health. It is my goal to work deeply with clients to identify and implement integrative and actionable lifestyle choices that will improve overall well-being as well as the ability to create and sustain healthy relationships with others. I believe that success is not only treating the symptoms, but moving beyond that to create a sustainable lifestyle that addresses the root causes of mental health issues and allows individuals to flourish and thrive. I encourage my clients to live with intention, curiosity, playfulness, and connectedness and support individuals in becoming their most healthy, empowered and abundant selves.
