As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), I specialize in working with individuals navigating ADHD, depression, anxiety, and life transitions, including grief and loss — whether through the death of a loved one or the complexities of ambiguous loss, as well as clients managing career changes or job loss. I also specialize in guiding women through the complexities associated with perimenopause and postmenopause. Whether in one-on-one or group settings, my approach is collaborative, empowering, and deeply client centered.

I bring a cognitive-focused, strengths-based approach to therapy, grounded in the belief that everyone holds the inner resources needed for growth, healing, and transformation. Drawing from an eclectic mix of evidence-based practices, I adeptly incorporate a variety of evidence-based interventions including cognitive behavior therapy, expressive arts, acceptance commitment therapy, narrative therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, and components of dialectical behavioral therapy including mindfulness practices to move the needle toward wellness.

In addition to private practice, I am experienced working in community, inpatient, and forensic settings. I am dual licensed in Washington and California.
