Not sure what you want to do with your life? Been there. Ankle-deep in your tears yet again from another disappointing relationship? Know the feeling. Unsure of your role as a person in a world that rarely recognizes or respects you? (raises hand) Maybe just sick and tired of feeling sick and tired? I got you! My education and training have certainly prepared me to handle many situations, but I excel at what I do because I have something to offer to my clients - real-world, relatable, personal experience.

To struggle is part of life, but not something you should go through alone. Mental health issues not only cause internal challenges but also difficulty with school, work, friends, family, and relationships. By allowing yourself to be supported, we can create a personalized treatment plan to fit your goals best. My therapeutic orientation is eclectic, but I integrate principles of evidence-based CBT, DBT, and ACT to bring lasting results.

Whether you are facing a transition in life, struggling with mental health, or want to work toward self-improvement, I can support you in achieving personal growth. In addition to being a licensed counselor, I am also an art therapist. For those who are interested, I guide clients in creative expression such as painting, drawing, collage, and writing for enhanced self-exploration. Since art-making accesses different areas of the brain than those used for speaking, I help clients use art-making to view issues from new and different perspectives.
