Great to meet you!

I have been in the field of mental health since 2014 when I was a graduate student intern. Since then, I've worked with all populations- children, substance abuse, teens, adults, couples, aging population, etc. In my career, I've picked up many interventions to utilize with clients- including specialities in trauma, relationships, as well as self-esteem.

My approach to therapy

I take a direct, authentic approach to the therapy process. This means that what you see is what you get. I will be honest and up front with you and hope you'll do the same for me. I believe the relationship between client and therapist is the number one catalyst for change and I take that responsibility seriously.

What you can expect from me

I enjoy working with clients who are motivated and ready to work on areas in their life they feel growth potential in. My practice does not target specific types of clients, but rather is open to all possibilities presented. I assist clients in creating their own personalized goals as we partner to help reach those goals as defined by the client's own expectations and wants.
