I am a compassionate Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 22 years of experience providing integrative psychological therapy to a variety of populations. I work with individuals from 14 years old and up as well as couples. I am particularly drawn to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, and stress reduction techniques. I practice from a holistic framework and utilize a strength-based approach in my work. I believe in meeting the clients where they are and encouraging a collaborative approach with my clients.

From a young age, I remember volunteering and wanting to making a difference in people's lives and in society. I joined the field when I realized I could embark on a career in which I would have have the potential to make a difference. I love working with people who believe in growth and well-being. I've always thought of my role as a therapist is to help my client's help themselves.

Photography, camping, hiking, gardening, the beach, and spending time with my family and dog.

I eat well, meditate, and make sure I walk everyday.

Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach. It is a story about a seagull named Jonathan. He is not like the other seagulls who just hunt for food all day. Jonathan wanted to perfect the art of flying and "fly where no seagull has flown before."

Unite for Her. Because it is a nonprofit organization that supports breast cancer and ovarian cancer patients by providing integrative therapies, services, education, resources, and support at no personal cost.

A long, hot shower and a good night's sleep.

Her name is Norah and she is a Cavapoo (a poodle and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.) My favorite pet story is the first time I saw her groom my husband by licking his face from top bottom, including his eyelashes and ears!
