Great to meet you!

I am a mental health counselor and yoga instructor and I'm honored to walk alongside clients on their journeys towards healing and growth. I came into this profession because I have battled and overcome numerous mental health struggles of my own with the help of therapists like myself. I'm especially passionate and knowledgable about navigating substance abuse and other impulsive behaviors, difficult relationships with food and body image, and mood disorders such as anxiety and depression.

My approach to therapy

My style is compassionate, playful and heartfelt. I favor mindfulness-based and behavioral approaches, but I draw upon others as needed as I get to know your personality, culture, and needs. I aim to create a space for clients that is safe and supportive where you feel free to express yourself openly and authentically. I deeply value the resilience and uniqueness of each of my clients, and I will encourage you to do the same in order to identify your personal strengths, values, and goals.

What you can expect from me

I believe it is possible to have compassion for your current self and where you are right now, while desiring and working toward change. I like to facilitate this process by providing the space to learn and practice new skills in a safe setting that will develop your mental, emotional, and physical awareness and enable you to handle painful thoughts, emotions, and experiences in more adaptive ways.
