Are you feeling overwhelmed, depressed, experiencing low self-esteem, struggling with life transitions or an eating disorder? I am passionate in working with teens, college students and adults. I strive to empower those with a willingness to change. Therapy is a journey and my job is to help you acknowledge your successes and accompany you through those moments where you feel stuck, because you do not have to go at it alone.
As a resident in counseling, I am continually learning and researching evidence-based approaches. I rely on my client's knowledge about themselves and their identified strengths, in combination with my knowledge and application of different treatment models, assisting the clients in formulating goals and making healthy changes in their lives.
My goal is to help each client cultivate their most authentic selves and to live the life that brings them the most joy. If you feel ready to make positive changes or if you feel like you would like some support on your journey, let me help you reach your destination.
