Great to meet you!

I specialize in adolescents and young adults, but I also love working with couples too! I have over 15 years of experience working in community mental heath clinics, hospitals, and schools. I am highly passionate about helping folks grow to reach their full potential... I wouldn’t choose anything different!

My approach to therapy

I feel the connection and rapport you have with your therapist, at any client’s age, is the core foundation for progress and growth. With this in mind I tend to children and teens with warmth, I am supportive, sometimes playful or goofy, but always genuine. With adults these qualities still come through, but with more of a down to earth energy. I will try to motivate you to ‘do the work.’ I primarily utilize CBT techniques and solution focused depending on the problem areas.

What you can expect from me

We will review your history, symptoms, what brings you to therapy, and what you hope to get from it. And we will set a weekly schedule. Unfortunately, at this time I do not have any evening slots available. I have a handful of remaining openings in the time range of 10:30am-1:30pm
