Great to meet you!

While I am new to Headway, I have been practicing in various schools settings as a counselor for over a decade: supporting students and parents navigate, life, learning and loss of all types. Whether you or your child experience neurodivergence (such as ADHD, anxiety, autism, emotionality, sensory sensitivities, demand avoidance, etc.) or are struggling with social , work, relationship or routine daily demands, I am here to support you.


I tailor each session to meet the client's individual needs, personality, and strengths. Together, we'll build on your resilience, intuition, and inner resources while creating opportunities for growth, healing, and self-empowerment. My goal is to provide a safe, collaborative environment to make changes at your pace.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is integrative and personalized. Drawing from evidence based modalities such as Rogerian (person-centered), Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness-based, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Brainspotting. With child-clients, I use play and art based therapies. I tailor each session to meet the client's individual needs, personality, and strengths. Together, we'll build on your resilience, intuition, and inner resources while creating opportunities for growth, healing, and self-empowerment. My goal is to provide a safe, collaborative environment where you can explore challenges, develop new perspectives or skills, and make lasting changes at a pace that feels right for you.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another. I'll take time to understand what has brought you to therapy, what you're hoping to achieve, and answer any questions you may have about the process. Just as importantly, it's a chance for you to get a sense of whether I'm the right fit for your journey. My hope is that you'll leave our first session feeling heard, supported, and with at least one practical tool, strategy, or new perspective that you can begin applying in your daily life.
