Do you feel like you’re about to hit a breaking point? Are you getting more exhausted by your day-to-day tasks, and struggling with finding the energy for even getting out of bed? I’ve been there - and you don’t have to go through this alone. I work with motivated, insightful adults who have been pushing through their feelings and want to learn how to move towards a better future with increased confidence and hope. In sessions, my goal is to create an open environment where you can let it all out - cursing, crying, and joking are all allowed. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, life changes, and healing from trauma.

The world can be a stressful place causing us to feel overwhelmed, alone, and sometimes hopeless. I believe in a holistic therapeutic approach to improve client's areas of difficulty, as well as to highlight their individual strengths. With my background as a school psychologist, I am experienced in helping students achieve their social, emotional, and educational goals. I have a passion for working with children, adolescents and families, however, I enjoy working with individuals of all ages. My priority is to help all clients feel seen, heard, and valued.

I love working with high school/college students, healthcare professionals, seniors and individuals who are experiencing life transitions or identity loss/confusion. However, this does not mean that I am not open or experienced in working with clients with different challenges. In my experience, when a client has selected me as their therapist, it has been a great fit for the therapeutic relationship.

I believe that a nonjudgmental, empathetic environment where you can safely express your experiences is essential to therapy. I value self-compassion and introspection, and these concepts will be emphasized as you get to know yourself at a deeper level. The goal of my therapy is to collaboratively guide you towards a lifestyle that aligns with who you want to be. My primary areas of focus are trauma, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, and interpersonal/relational problems.

Therapy is a vulnerable experience. I believe there is something incredibly powerful and transformative about stepping into this vulnerability to better understand ourselves, our experiences, and our relationships. I strive to create a safe therapy space in which we can develop an authentic and collaborative therapeutic relationship. Together, we will work to better understand your experiences and identify changes that are meaningful and congruent with the life you want to live. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all process; I use an integrative approach that is tailored to your individual needs and goals.

My passion lies in working with couples, families, and children between the ages of 3 and 10, navigating the complexities of life transitions and interpersonal dynamics. Utilizing modalities such as Child-Centered Play Therapy and Theraplay, I create a safe and engaging environment for children to express themselves and develop crucial coping skills. For couples seeking to strengthen their bond and navigate challenges, I employ an Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) approach, fostering secure attachment and effective communication. My goal is to empower couples to cultivate deeper connections and resilience in the face of adversity.

A traumatic event can make you feel like your world has been turned upside-down while substance use or dependence can keep you from living your full potential. Healing from trauma, grief, unhealthy relationships or substance use can happen in an environment without shame or judgment. I tailor the treatment plan for each client's needs utilizing evidenced-based practices and incorporating 12-step recovery, stage of change model and Motivational Interviewing techniques. With these strategies, adolescents and adults have been able to develop healthier coping skills and the ability to thrive.

I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship with clients is a powerful tool for growth. My style is characterized by empathy, sincerity, and warmth. Providing a non-judgmental and supportive environment allows clients to reach their full potential and overcome challenges. I understand that every person has their own unique perspective on life. I am sensitive to these experiences, cultures, and values, and believe there is no “one size fits all” approach to therapy. I strive to work with you to find happiness, cope with stress, and understand yourself and your world.

Crisis and adversity can become opportunities to refocus on our values, needs and wants. People of all ages seek talk therapy during emotional crisis. In therapy individuals identify symptoms of anxiety and depression resulting from academic, social, and emotional stressors. I specialize in helping people learn to cope and formulate a 'return to normalcy' plan with evidence based treatments such as Cognitive and/or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (CBT; DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I value and believe that the work done together in session is key with helping clients reach their goals.

I am a passionate student therapist dedicated to supporting adolescents, young adults, and families. With extensive experience, I have worked with a diverse range of clients within these groups, helping them navigate various challenges.

Do you find yourself grappling with overwhelming feelings of helplessness, as if life has taken charge and you are no longer in control? Perhaps anxiety and depression have become unwelcome companions in your journey, making you feel powerless. The sense of isolation may be compounded by the fear that expressing your authentic self will alienate others. Have you experienced this before?
