Licensed Clinical Social Worker
​
I am beyond thrilled to introduce myself as a therapist with Willow Tree Wellness! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a person-centered and empathetic approach who utilizes a strengths-based approach, with the belief that you can, will, and have achieved great things in this life! I am dedicated to creating a warm and welcoming environment where clients feel safe, heard, and understood. I aim to build strong, trusting relationships with my clients, empowering them to explore their thoughts and feelings in a supportive space. With a focus on the individual's unique experiences and perspectives, I tailor my approach to each client's specific needs and goals. Through collaboration, compassion, and genuine care, I will work to help clients achieve personal growth and emotional well-being. Clients can expect a nonjudgmental and uplifting therapeutic experience that fosters self-discovery, healing, and positive change.
​
I graduated with my Masters in Social Work from the University of Connecticut in 2020 and have been working with children, adolescents, and parents in both school and community based settings. I enjoy working with children and adolescents and have found this work invaluable, however, I am ready to apply my clinical skills to adults, couples, and families as well. The world can be a scary and overwhelming place, full of unknowns, friends and family who cause stress and agitation, and daily annoyances that build up to uncomfortable emotions. You are only human, and your feelings of stress, anxiety, discomfort, or sadness are valid and changeable. If I am the right fit for you, I will assist you in developing skills to cope with life's stressors, unpack and unravel tangled thoughts , manage overwhelming emotions, or find ways to calm your worried mind. You lead the way and I will walk in step with you.
