Great to meet you!

Accepting change and working on your personal growth can be challenging. Right now, you are taking the necessary steps to grow. I am excited to meet with you and discuss your needs and ways to achieve your therapeutic goals. I work together with clients to set goals that can help address their needs and inspire insight and growth. I have worked extensively with adolescents both individually and within their relationships with parents and peers.

My approach to therapy

The approach I take in therapy is to join with my clients and see them from a strengths based perspective. I love working with people and empowering them to be able to find the best versions of themselves. I am excited to meet with you and share in your journey of growth and discovery.

What you can expect from me

I work with people with depression, anxiety, trauma history, PTSD, personality disorders, self harm struggles and clients struggling with suicidal idealizations. I frequently work with people in the LGBTQ community. I also work with people struggling with chronic pain and co-morbid mental health struggles that can come with invisible pain.

You can expect to be heard and have the opportunity to work on your struggles.
