Everyone is on a journey, but not every journey is the same. My approach to therapy begins with meeting you where you are at in your journey and allowing you to create a space to share your story, supporting you as you address mental health issues you feel are creating challenges in your day-to-day life and creating the changes you desire. Together we can address issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, major life transitions, and more so you can begin to thrive in your journey through life.

I enjoy supporting young adults 17+ and adults who feel "stuck" and desire to heal from past trauma or PTSD, improve relationships, navigate current overwhelming situations, change unhelpful/harmful behaviors, develop emotional experiencing skills, strengthen executive functioning or increase self-understanding to build a life with less unnecessary suffering and more commitment towards what matters most. I love working with people from a variety of backgrounds, cultures and identities (including LGBTQIA+ and ADHD/Autistic folks) and commit to honoring each diverse experience.

Using a culturally competent lens, I specialize in the areas of grief and loss, anxiety, depression, family of origin concerns and interpersonal communication. I am relational, and value the importance of the therapeutic alliance as a tool to facilitate change.
