Hi, I appreciate you taking the time and considering me to be part of your journey. Finding the right therapist can feel like an overwhelming task. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults and families who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship problems, self-esteem, or life’s everyday struggles.

As an Academic Success Coach, and Life Coach, I work with students in middle school, high school, and in college. I take the time to get to know each individual so that I can better understand what their needs are and then collaborate with them to develop a support plan to address those needs. I strive to support student success through strengthening executive functioning skills such as: organization, time management, goal setting, prioritizing, task management, self-advocacy, and accountability. Through individual and/or group sessions, I work with students to strengthen these skills to be more successful in school and in life.

What would you be like if optimism replaced fear? If you were able to view struggles as opportunities for growth? How might this affect the way you see yourself? Could it lead to a decrease in your anxiety or better your mood? We all perceive our lives in story lines. Their plots are created by life experiences, relationships, and societal norms. Sometimes it is these very stories, authored by us, that can make us feel stuck. Imagine experiencing freedom from worry about the thoughts or judgments of others.

Have you been overwhelmed by anxiety and self-doubt? Are you watching your kid or family struggle? Maybe you are tired of the same old cycle of thoughts & feelings, feeling hopeless and out of control. You are here today feeling ready for things to be different, you are ready to feel more confident, capable, & in control. Congratulations on taking that first step to make it happen!
