With a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and a dedication to fostering mental wellness, I am excited to offer a range of therapeutic services tailored to your unique needs. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply need someone to talk to, I am here to provide compassionate and professional support. I strive to impart that it’s not about what’s wrong with you. Rather, it’s about understanding behaviors, thought patterns, and the protective tendencies that behaviors and thought patterns may serve.
My approach is client-centered, ensuring that your therapy experience is as effective and comfortable as possible. I utilize an eclectic array of therapeutic modalities and I am currently training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR).
Seeking out counseling can stir up uncertainty, but rest assured I will be your greatest champion! There is enormous strength in allowing oneself to be vulnerable. Please call or email if you'd like to schedule an appointment. I am excited to begin this journey with you!

The main issues I can help with, are anxiety, relationship issues, and depression. A typical treatment plan involves a biopsychosocial assessment, learning about the problem, gleaning various management techniques such as structured problem-solving, mindfulness, relaxation, and utilizing what best fits you. The benefit of this approach is that it is knowledge-based and collaboratively directed.

I often use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) but I also believe there is value in using an internal family systems (IFS) approach. Initially, we're going to look at what brought you to therapy, then we will decide the best way to help you make progress. Utilization of CBT explores thought's impact on emotions. IFS encourages internal exploration of one's parts and the roles they may be serving.
