Great to meet you!

I am a licensed mental health therapist with over 8 years of experience, including 6 years in school counseling and 3 years working with individuals and families. I began my career in school settings, where I developed a deep passion for supporting mental health across all ages. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, I’ve provided Telehealth services in both Washington and Florida. My specialties include working with clients experiencing behavioral challenges, parenting stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions.

My approach to therapy

I take a strengths-based, person-centered approach to treating youth, adults, and families, primarily utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy techniques. I have unconditional positive regard and I believe in empowering clients to make real change in their daily lives.
