My passion for social justice is what led me to pursue a social work degree. I studied at Columbia University in New York City and have worked in homeless shelters, hospitals, schools, and community mental health centers. I love working with young adults in the LGBTQ+ community, neurodivergent folks, and survivors of sexual violence.

My approach is trauma-informed, person-centered, and humanistic. I am currently being trained in Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and have experience delivering Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Mindfulness. I am also certified in Reiki and Trauma-Informed Yoga.

Above all, I believe in the importance and power of kindness and my main goal is for clients to feel heard, seen, and a sense of belonging. “The human in me sees the human in you.” We are a team and we do this work together.

Outside of work, I enjoy decompressing and grounding myself by connecting with nature, skiing, practicing yoga, reading a good book, or watching horror movies. At work I am known for being a fashion lover 🙂
