Great to meet you!

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, understood, and accepted. Reaching out for therapy can be difficult, whether you are struggling with a specific concern, navigating a major life transition, or simply feeling like things have become harder to manage. My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself and feel comfortable exploring what brings you to therapy.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with experience working with children, adolescents, college students, adults, and older adults. I work with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, and trauma. I have specialized expertise in trauma across the lifespan, reproductive and perinatal mental health, neurodiversity, ADHD, and autism-related concerns. I also provide play therapy for children, using developmentally appropriate approaches to help children express themselves, build coping skills, and work through difficult experiences.

I particularly enjoy working with college students and professionals who are balancing demanding careers, relationships, family responsibilities, and the many expectations of adult life. I have worked with educators, college professors, healthcare providers, attorneys, government employees, and other professionals who may be accustomed to caring for others while finding it difficult to make space for themselves.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized. I draw from cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness-based, trauma-informed, and other evidence-based approaches, adapting therapy to your needs, personality, and goals. I don't believe there is a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Together, we will identify what is getting in the way, build on your existing strengths, and develop practical tools to help you move forward.

Whether you are seeking support for yourself, your child, your family, or a challenging season of life, I would be honored to work with you. You don't have to navigate it alone.

What you can expect from me

In your first therapy appointment, we will focus on getting to know you--what brings you in, what you've been dealing with, and what you hope might change. I'll ask some questions to understand your history and current concerns, but we'll go at a pace that feels comfortable and respectful. You can expect a supportive, collaborative space where we begin outlining goals and next steps together, with no pressure to have everything figured out right away.
