I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California with 18 years of professional work experience. I graduated from Cal Poly Humboldt in 2006 with a Master's in Social Work. My approach is collaborative with an emphasis on radical self-acceptance and normalizing the human experience. I especially enjoy working with people who are navigating life transitions, including career changes, entering or exiting relationships, newly sober, and those caring for children and/or elders.
My clients describe me as an empathetic and direct therapist who uses warmth and humor in her practice. Together we will explore your concerns, identify your strengths, and learn new ways to deal with old patterns so you can thrive in your life.
I look forward to working with you.
