Great to meet you!

I'm a therapist who strives to provide a warm and accepting environment and who works with young children (0–7), teens, and adults. I'm trained in Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and in Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP). I listen closely, build trust, and work with each person to find helpful ways to grow and feel better in everyday life.

My approach to therapy

My style is warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. No matter where you are, we'll move at a pace that feels right for you. My experience in the last 10 years has been with children under 7, teens, and adults, who want support managing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and life transitions. I also support parents with evidence-based strategies to build stronger relationships with their children. I provide telehealth therapy in Oregon and Arizona, making it easier to get support. I offer in person sessions in Maricopa, Arizona doing Equine Assisted Psychotherapy.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a space for you to share your story, at a pace that feels comfortable for you. We’ll spend time that allows me to get to know you, exploring your goals, and creating a supportive environment where you can feel heard, understood, and safe to be yourself.
