Another Sunday. Where did Saturday go? Where do Friday nights go? Where have the past few months gone? What am I even doing anymore? I'm alone in my basement waiting for my friends to log on to a game so I can talk to someone. Where are my other friends and why can't I reach out to them? Why don't I know what I am doing with myself or my life? Everyone tells me how good a person I am and how smart I am....why don't I feel that way? I make so many promises to myself, but I do nothing. I do nothing. Why even try? I just don't know where to start and I hate it. This just isn't working for me anymore and I'm scared I won't be able to get it together. I think I need someone to talk to.

First and foremost, I see you. I see all the effort you’ve made so far, and I hear your frustration. It can be really hard to reach out for therapy, and I’m so glad you’re considering it.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience working with young adults, adults, and elders on the issues that matter. The relationship we build in therapy is very important to me. I create a space for you to be truly yourself, and I strive to understand you, and welcome you to correct me, stop me, and even call me out if I’m missing something. This is truly your time and space.

My Approach: 

I consider myself person-centered. I’m inquisitive and love to learn and listen. My goal is to provide a non-judgmental and safe environment for you to explore what’s on your mind and create change. I believe in a strengths-based approach so I listen for your strengths and where you can be further empowered. I look at the work we do together as being flowing and not rigid and I strive to meet you exactly where you are. Together we can explore how you can make the changes you’re longing for.

Does insurance cover the cost of therapy sessions?

At this time, I accept Husky/Medicaid, Anthem BCBS, and Optum/United/Connecticare/Oxford and am in the process of contracting with Cigna/Evernorth, and Aetna.
