My ideal client would be vulnerable yet aware in the beginning. They would be open to learning about therapy options.

Hello! I work with older adolescents, college aged students, and adults in addressing trauma, anxiety, depression, relational/marital conflicts, and general life transitions/stressors. In my practice, I center the individual story, and believe that each person’s journey is unique and deserving of respect and attention.

Have you felt alone? As if no one understands what you are going through? Our daily challenges, mental health concerns, and stressors can feel isolating.

I understand that it takes much strength to seek out assistance when needed. I believe we are not made to live in isolation, and we do best when we are part of a community. By recognizing the events that have formed us in life, we can learn from them and become a better version of ourselves.

My ideal client is anyone who genuinely wants help and genuinely wants to make a change. Their issues are immaterial.
