    I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with adolescents and adults of all identities who are open to working towards growth and change. Exploring the intersection of recovery and autonomy while on a GLP-1 is a special interest of mine. I enjoy using a variety of tools in sessions including oracle cards, tarot cards, journaling, and EFT or tapping. I also use a person centered approach and humor and honesty as a way for myself and my clients to build safety and connection.
