My goal in therapy is to create that space through acceptance, connection, and compassion. Through a collaborative process I hope to help individuals find their voice, create balance through mindfulness, and work towards their goals. I understand that working towards change can be overwhelming and that embracing openness can allow for new experiences in life. I am willing to be there with you to find peace within and be present the way you want to in life, through creating new meaning.

I’ve always had a passion for being a helper and support to others. I began my career in education, where I learned my students could be more successful academically if they had the tools to manage their emotions and the challenges life tosses their way. This led me to enroll in a counseling program to help my students, which began my immersion into the field of counseling and supporting others as a professional helper and psychotherapist. At NOCD, my team and I provide personalized and effective specialized treatment for OCD and related conditions, such as BFRBs (including skin-picking, nail-biting, and hair-pulling).

I work primarily with children and teens; I use both play therapy and talk therapy techniques with clients as appropriate as we work together in therapy. I have a passion for experiential therapy. I believe the most important element of therapy is the therapist's unconditional positive regard for the client. A client's capacity for growth increases according to how much they believe others believe in them. As a therapist, I am sometimes the first person a child/teen will trust besides their parent(s) who says, "You are good. You are capable of growth and change. I believe in you."

Therapy is an investment in your relationship to self, others, and your future health. We all go through various transitions and experiences in life that can overwhelm our capacity to cope and make sense of who we are and where we are going. Working with a clinician in this process of self-exploration can provide insights as well as actionable steps to take to lead to a healthier and more regulated version of who you already are. I firmly believe that people arrive in the therapy space with resources already within that are ready to be discovered and encouraged.

Deciding that we need help is not an easy thing to admit. It's even more difficult to reach out to get the help we know we deserve. No matter what you are dealing with in life, may it be daily anxiety and depression or transitioning through a phase in your life that turned out to be more difficult than you thought. I am here to listen and help you through these times. I hope that with my help you can live your life the way you have always wanted and feel proud for the work you have done to truly take care of yourself.

Sometimes the things we experience don’t come with words to express them. I use an integrative trauma-informed body-aware approach to help clients listen to the stories that their bodies, emotions, and experiences are trying to tell them. I provide a compassionate, supportive atmosphere to allow your inner experiences to be witnessed and processed in a welcoming and non-judgmental space. I often incorporate grounding exercises, mindfulness, coping skills, and integration of both EMDR and art therapy when working with individuals to connect deeply within themselves to provide safety and empower them to transform their lives.

I believe that at any given moment we are all doing the best that we can with what we have within us. Everyone has found themselves in the midst of the struggle at some point, and that struggle may appear the same or differently each time. I enjoy working with a wide variety of concerns such as anxious/depressive symptoms, relationship conflict, trauma, and personality disorders. No one can force a change to happen so there is never a guarantee of services. However, if you are looking for someone to provide safety and support while challenging you to better understand yourself and your roles - this may be a good space for you.

Therapy is a place and time where a person who is facing overwhelming life challenges comes for non-judgmental and honest but empathetic care. My ever-evolving approach includes a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, always starting with person-centered, strength-based, and including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and trauma-focused therapies.

Person-centered. Trauma-informed. Solution-focused. These are the words I choose most frequently to describe my work in the therapy room. My greatest desire is to hold space for every individual that enters space with me, and support each of them as they learn to hold space for themselves.

I have my doctorate in clinical psychology and am a licensed psychologist who specializes in treatments proven to increase children's positive feelings and ability to cope. I work with children ages 6-17. Some areas of treatment interest are anxiety, phobias, trauma, and adjustment issues (such as grief, divorce, food allergies). I have a certified therapy dog named Willow. If clients do not want Willow in session, then she is not a part of therapy. Willow is an mini Aussiedoodle, which means she has minimal shedding and is more allergy-friendly.
