Great to meet you!

I have 23 years of experience providing specialized clinical therapy services to children, adolescents, young adults, and adults dealing with a variety of concerns. I have expertise in the treatment of severe anxiety, OCD (Exposure Response Prevention), Depression (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), as well as other life challenges impacting children/teens/adults, including trauma, Traumatic Brain Injury, grief/loss, and coping with other chronic medical concerns. Additionally, I provide resources for those individuals living with a diagnosis of Alpha Gal, including emotional support, lifestyle adaptation and dietary modification support, and resources.

I am also in the process of partnering with a community program to provide Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy services to individuals interested in therapy, but desiring an experiential therapy approach. This therapy is particularly suited for those dealing with grief/loss, PTSD, self esteem concerns, and trauma.

My approach to therapy

My approach is a warm, empathic one that focuses on the client's goals for growth and life changes. It is based on the understanding that each client already has within them the strengths, instincts, and capacity for growth in any area they desire.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to take away specific strategies for lifestyle change and long term healing.
