My goal as a therapist is to provide a space in which clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and experiences while feeling safe, heard, and understood. My therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, person-centered, and strengths-based. I weave in aspects of a variety of other styles including CBT, DBT, psychodynamic, and social thinking components based on the unique and individual needs of each client. I enjoy working with adolescents and young adults on topics including; anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationships, school related concerns, trauma, and low self-esteem.

I utilize eclectic therapeutic approaches, incorporating evidence-based practices such as CBT, CPT, MI, and person-centered modalities, creating an individualized plan each client's unique needs.
In the role of both generalist and eating disorder specialist at Windhorse Counseling, my work with clients is direct, but infused with a generous dose of humor, empathy, and compassion. I believe in creating a safe space where clients can express their zone, and my deepest hope is that clients can walk away from each session having gained more insight and a new goal to work towards. My natural energy is always present in session; I have a particular interest in helping young adults get unstuck and move toward newness, be it within the realm of their emotional wellbeing or in a performance-related setting.

With me, you can expect a collaborative, direct, and interactive approach that is person-centered.
Therapy can be the catalyst for transforming our pain from the past or present into courage, strength, and personal growth. There are times when indecision can feel overwhelming, we question our abilities or choices, or feel stuck, stagnant, or struggle to develop and execute a plan to adjust and grow. I believe that every human experience deserves validation and space for healing when needed, no matter how “small” or “insignificant” one might think it is. In addition to ongoing individual psychotherapy, I offer a short term, “Emotional Preparedness” program for the college bound individual for survival skills for this transition.
