I am dedicated and passionate about forming a meaningful bond with each client I work with. Empathic, effective, and client-centered mental health care are foundations of my therapeutic practice, and I aspire to create a space that is both welcoming and safe for all clients.
Throughout my clinical work, I have refined several areas of expertise including perinatal mental health care, addiction therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and eating disorders. I am also passionate about working with parents, children, and families navigating challenging dynamics, situations, or behaviors.
A supportive, caring, and listening ear can be helpful at any stage in life. Reaching out is a brave step to changing, and regardless of what the presenting concern is; the most important factor is to find a therapist
