The Work

I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work with a focus on learning the most holistic and effective approaches to providing therapy services to couples and families. My experiences with being a part of a separated family have taught me that healthy human relationships are the foundation of everyday life, and my passion lies in helping others build strong, wholesome connections. Through my academic journey and hands-on experiences, I am committed to becoming a resourceful and compassionate guide for my clients, equipped with the tools to support their emotional well-being and relational growth. I offer a warm and non-judgmental space for others to feel seen and supported through their struggles.
