Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over a decade of experience working with adults and young adults using trauma-informed interventions, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapies (DBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) techniques. My therapy style focuses on change as a constant and certain part of life. It emphasizes what is changeable and possible. Clients work on developing their own goals, and using their resources and strengths to move forward in their therapeutic work.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in working with trauma-related disorders, ADHD and neurodiversity, anxiety, and depression.

What you can expect from me

Healing comes from an integration of mind, body, and spirit, and my practice encourages healing of the whole self. Learning to live our truths, leaning into authenticity, and embracing our imperfections on our path of healing is the core of our work. Currently offering individual therapy as well as DBT/CBT group therapy.

As of 7/1/2025: Telehealth availability only at this time. In person services are waitlisted.
