Great to meet you!

I have over 10 years of experience working with teens and young adults as they navigate life's changes and challenges. My approach is supportive and understanding, helping clients build confidence, self-awareness, and healthy coping skills during this important stage of growth.

My approach to therapy

I help clients work through trauma, anxiety, and depression by using collaborative and flexible modalities to promote awareness, understanding, and empowerment. Together, we focus on practical tools and insight to create lasting positive change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session will consist of rapport building, information gathering, and goal setting.
