Great to meet you!

With over 15 years of clinical experience, I provide a safe and personalized atmosphere to support growth and behavior change. I have extensive experience working within families, and particularly working with parents of children with anxiety. I partner directly with parents to teach evidence based skills and techniques that help you effectively navigate your child's emotions. Together we enhance awareness, build healthier interactional styles, and develop a new normal for your family.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative and highly tailored to each client's individual needs. I focus on building skills, improving confidence, and helping you make meaningful changes.

What you can expect from me

Sometimes a first session with a therapist can feel nerve wracking or uncomfortable, and it is normal to feel reluctant to reach out. I aim to keep our meetings effortless and keep you at ease.
