Toward Wellness, LLC

I work collaboratively and with presence as we explore your past and present experiences, including the questions, emotions, and patterns that shape your life. You may be navigating anxiety or depression, difficult transitions, identity concerns, trauma, relationship patterns, or a sense of feeling stuck. Our work together can create space for understanding, growth, and healing. As a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience, I’ve worked and trained in diverse settings including inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, residential addiction treatment and inpatient care at the VA, a private hospital, a community mental health clinic, and university counseling centers. These experiences have shaped a broad and integrative perspective that I bring to therapy, one that honors both depth and practicality. My approach draws from feminist and multicultural traditions, extensive psychodynamic training, and real-world clinical experience. I also hold a doctorate in counseling psychology from an APA-accredited program and am currently preparing for psychology licensure. I’m honored to have worked with individuals from many walks of life, across geographic regions, socioeconomic realities, racial and ethnocultural identities, and lived experiences. My style is relational and psychodynamic, grounded in empathy and genuine connection, and informed by values of social justice and a liberation psychology framework. If you’re considering therapy, I’d be glad to connect for a brief consultation to see whether working together feels like the right fit.
