Introduction

Welcome to Daylight Therapy! As a Licensed Independent Social Worker, I enjoy working with adolescents (12+) and adults in navigating life's challenges and working toward meaningful change. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, past trauma, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. I believe therapy is a collaborative journey — one where your story matters and your goals guide our work. With a compassionate and non-judgmental approach, I draw from evidence-based practices tailored to your unique needs, so you can build resilience, rediscover your strengths, and lead a more fulfilling life. In my experience as a therapist, I have completed training in several areas of clinical practice including anxiety and depressive disorders, trauma, and more. I am also trained in Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy for the treatment of PTSD. Taking the first step can be the hardest part. When you're ready, I’m here — and we can begin the work of stepping out of the shadows and walking together in the daylight.
