Hi, I’m glad you’re here. Finding a therapist who feels like the right fit can be challenging, and my goal is to create a space where therapy feels comfortable, collaborative, and genuine.

I have experience working with children, teens, adults, and caregivers across a variety of settings, including schools, outpatient therapy, group therapy, and intensive outpatient programs. My background includes supporting young people with behavioral and emotional concerns, working with teens experiencing both mental health and substance use challenges, providing individual therapy to adults, and helping parents and caregivers better understand and support the people they care about.

Areas of concern I work with:

anxiety

depression

anger

communication

trauma

I currently offer:

• Telehealth sessions on Tuesdays and Thursday evenings for clients located in Ohio or Kentucky
• In-person sessions on Wednesdays from 8:30 a.m.–2:30 p.m. in Beachwood, Ohio.

My approach to therapy is conversational and down-to-earth. Therapy can involve difficult or uncomfortable topics, but I don’t believe it has to feel overly clinical or formal. Building trust and a strong therapeutic relationship is an important part of my work, and I want clients to feel comfortable being themselves in our sessions.

I mainly use an approach that includes DBT-informed and CBT strategies.

In the first session, I try to learn about you to help build a connection, so that we can successfully work together. I think the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is the first step in making treatment effective.
