Great to meet you!

With more than 12 years of experience in mental health, I bring a well-rounded perspective to therapy. I've worked as a case manager (QMHP), substance abuse counselor (LCDC), and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Currently, I focus on helping adults and teens navigate the emotional challenges of depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, or life transitions that can impact relationships, work, school, and daily life.

My approach to therapy

I use evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to support individuals through tough life stages and alleviate symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, or grief.

What you can expect from me

I aim to create a welcoming and supportive space where you can tackle challenges, build coping skills, and make positive changes in your life. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just seeking to understand yourself better, I’m here to guide you toward clarity and confidence. By fostering insight and offering tools for growth, I provide a compassionate, judgment-free environment to help you uncover what's holding you back and move toward a life that feels more grounded, connected, and fulfilling. Together, we can work on helping you feel like yourself again.
