Therapy can often feel intimidating & taking the first step to growth takes a lot of strength. My goal is to guide you through the process of therapy with support, empathy, & the occasional cheesy joke. I create treatment plans that are flexible & individualized & allow for us to collaborate as a team to meet all of your therapeutic needs. I hope to develop a therapeutic relationship that allows you to feel comfortable delving into difficult topics while also allowing you the time & space to talk about the nuances of your day. I strive to help you develop the tools to combat those personal struggles & advocate for what you deserve.
I specialize in working with individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, & suicidality & guide all of my treatment through a trauma-informed care model. My passions also include working with those involved in the criminal justice system & those with sexual issues. I utilize CBT & DBT interventions most frequently in my treatment plans.
I love to provide psychoeducation & answer questions about psychology. Although being a therapist is a huge part of my identity, I also like to make time for my personal passions, including cooking, going to hockey games, watching scary movies, reading & playing with my dogs. I cannot wait to work with you & be a part of this new adventure in therapy.
