As a licensed clinical social worker associate, I am passionate about supporting children and young adults as they navigate life’s challenges. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment, utilizing evidence-based practices to help clients develop coping mechanisms, enhance self-esteem, and navigate complex situations. I bring over 20 years of experience working with children in educational settings, which has shaped my understanding of their unique needs and challenges.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Winthrop University, building on a foundation of Bachelor of Arts degrees in Sociology and Elementary Education. My approach to therapy is multidimensional, exploring each individual’s biological, psychological, and social needs. I tailor interventions to meet each client's specific needs, fostering positive growth and resilience.

I am committed to helping clients heal from trauma and negative beliefs of self-worth, improve communication in their relationships, and achieve their goals. Using a strengths-based adaptive approach, I evaluate each person in their environment, offering practical support to address life’s challenges effectively. With compassion and understanding, I empower individuals to build on their strengths and achieve personal growth. My greatest passion lies in working with school-age children. I am dedicated to supporting those who face academic, social, or emotional difficulties, collaborating with families and educators to promote their overall well-being and success.
