I provide outpatient therapy services to children, adolescents, and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, behavioral issues, and relationship conflicts through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, EFT, IFS, EMDR, and Person-Centered Therapy.
Healing starts the moment a person begins to be heard. As a therapist, I take the necessary time to listen to clients, build positive rapport, and explore the barriers and traumas that are causing distress in all aspects of life. It is my goal to ensure people feel safe and comfortable expressing their emotions, problems, and pain in a therapeutic setting. I believe with the right tools and coping mechanisms; healing is within reach and can be achieved. Let's take this journey together.

Throughout my career, I have worked with clients in a variety of settings, such as school settings, child welfare, and community mental health with a focus on work with children.
Are you sick of feeling unheard and unseen? As a neurodivergent provider in a society that is not always neurodivergency affirming, I feel connected to clients who feel as if they are navigating life without understanding themselves or their experiences. My own experiences and training have drawn me to my passion of working with neurodivergent children and adults utilizing a neurodivergency affirming approach.

The population I enjoy serving the most are children, teenagers, and their parents. I do not discriminate against other adults, of course. Children and teenagers are facing unimaginable difficulties including learning challenges (ADHD, Dyslexia), anger, behavioral difficulties, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and eating disorders just to name a few. It is my desire to assist your child, teenager, or yourself with the unique journey of life.

Powerful transformations can happen in therapy, but I know that finding the right fit for you or your children can feel like a daunting task.
Now more than ever, we need a safe space where we can be truly seen, supported, and empowered. As your therapist, I am honored to create this space and to work together on the lasting changes you want to make. I bring over 17 years of counseling experience and I enjoy working with people in many stages of life, from children (ages 6+) to adults. I also work with couples who are looking for help with relationship issues. I take a holistic approach, so I draw on a wide variety of tools, including: internal family systems (IFS), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and somatic work.
