Many teens and adults struggle with identity issues, anxiety, and feeling depressed. Imagine feeling comfortable with who you are, better able to manage your distress, and hopeful for your future. There are ways to change patterns over time, and I would be honored to help you or your loved one feel better.
I have been working with teens, adults, and families for 7+ years and offer therapy that focuses on alleviating and managing issues related to identity development, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. I am proud to offer culturally-informed therapy for individuals in the LGBTQ+ community and am honored to support these individuals and their families.
I often incorporate the use of cognitive-behavioral interventions, however, I understand each individual is different and will collaborate on what works best for you or your loved one. My goal is to create a nonjudgmental space by using empathy, humor, and honesty to help you feel understood and supported.
