I believe as humans we have a fundamental need to be heard in our pain and seen in our goodness. Therapy offers a dedicated space to explore who you are, attend to the parts of yourself that are hurting, and nurture growth in areas that need change. As your therapist, I will empower you to build self-compassion and understanding, and support you in finding meaning and fulfillment.
I specialize in working with teens and young adults who feel lost or uncertain as they navigate the challenges of early adulthood. I provide a warm, affirming, compassionate space where youth clients can explore their identity, uncover strengths and patterns, create new narratives, and discover a whole, fulfilled self.
In addition to meeting clients in office, I offer equine-guided therapy. Reach out to learn more about this nature-based modality, or visit my website to see if I may be the right fit for you.
