Great to meet you!

I have extensive experience working with children, adults, veterans, domestic violence survivors, and adoptive/foster families. I provide holistic, mindfulness-based therapy and cognitive based therapy for those navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, life transitions, and self-esteem issues—all within a safe, supportive space.

My approach to therapy

Taking the step to reach out for help is a giant leap of faith and it is brave to be vulnerable. I welcome the opportunity to be your ally on this journey. I approach clients from a holistic and client-centered perspective and I meet clients where they are at currently. Mental health support can be a new and different experience. I create a welcoming, warm, and nurturing environment as a support person and mental health professional. I specialize in mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, we will do a complete bioassessment initial intake where I will start to get to know you, your history, and what you hope to achieve with therapy. You will also have the opportunity to ask me questions and decide if I am the best ally for your therapeutic needs.
