Navigating the journey of life can be challenging. Often the path is fraught with twists and turns as we encounter obstacles we did not anticipate and struggle to overcome. As a therapist, I see my role as someone who will walk beside you as you seek to overcome difficulties and discover the right direction for your life. I am an independently licensed Social Worker who received my MSW from The Ohio State University. I have experience working with diverse late adolescent and adult populations, providing outpatient counseling to individuals and couples, as well as facilitation of a wide range of therapeutic group work.
I am a strong generalist clinician with competency in treating a wide range of presenting concerns and mental health disorders. I specialize in working with emerging adults ages 16 and over. Additionally, I am trained in Prolonged Exposure (PE), an evidenced-based treatment shown to reduce symptoms of PTSD.
I strongly believe in fostering a collaborative relationship with clients and always approach my work from a strengths-based perspective. I utilize an integrative therapeutic style drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Practices, Narrative and Solution-Focused therapies.
