Be good to yourself. You deserve it.

I am an Associate Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California. I have experience across various social work settings, including adoption therapy, behavioral health services, and case management. Throughout my career, I have worked with diverse populations, including children, families, and individuals facing life transitions and challenges.

My work includes supporting children and adults with developmental and behavioral needs, as well as providing therapeutic interventions to individuals and families navigating complex emotional and relational issues. In my role as an adoption therapist, I have helped families strengthen bonds, create stability, and explore the world of adoption. My experience also extends to case management, where I have worked closely with clients to guide them through important life decisions, offering emotional support and connecting them to resources.

I am committed to empowering individuals to achieve positive outcomes through a compassionate, client-centered approach. I plan to earn my license for clinical social work and am passionate about continuing my work in the fields of neurodiversity and adoption.
