Sometimes life throws struggles your way and you don’t know what the next step to take is. You can feel lost in your thoughts and worries, unsure of how to get out. Through therapy, we can tackle the problems that are causing distress and work to make meaningful changes in your life.

I believe that every client is unique and tailor my approach to each individual with a person-centered, strength-based approach. I use modalities such as CBT and mindfulness techniques.  I work to create a safe space that allows clients to feel seen and understood throughout the process of counseling.

My clients’ ages range from adolescents starting at age 9 to older adulthood, working with both individual clients as well as couples and families. My clients often deal with issues related to varying levels of anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. I also have experience with relationship conflicts, life transitions, cancer/oncology, and trauma.

 In my free time, I enjoy walking my dog, watching movies, and spending time with friends.
