License: ASW108859

(under clinical supervision by Michael Lemley, License: LCSW85831)

Drea believes we all hold the answers to healing within. However, at times, life stressors, traumatic events, and oppressive systems can leave people feeling ‘stuck’, overwhelmed, and like there’s no way out. Drea takes a collaborative, integrative approach, blending ideas from various modalities in order to support clients in moving through challenges.

Drea aims to create a safe space free of judgment so that you can show up as you are - not the perfectly polished version you might feel pressured to be. She invites the exploration of anything that arises - no topic is off limits. Her clients experience her as being warm, gentle, non-judgmental, and having a grounding presence.

Drea is an Associate Clinical Social Worker who received her Master of Social Work degree from Columbia University. She earned her Bachelor of Psychology degree from Northwestern University. She is a registered yoga teacher as well as a certified aerial yoga instructor. When she's not working, Drea enjoys dancing, going on hikes with friends, and playing at the beach with her dog Ziggy.

Favorite Quote:

“Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you – all of the expectations, all of the beliefs – and becoming who you are.”
