Great to meet you!

After receiving my Master's of Social work degree from Eastern Washington University, I worked in behavioral healthcare settings to help children, teens, and adults work through a variety of difficulties. As a licensed independent clinical social worker, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate the challenges that life throws their way. I’m passionate about working with teens/young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach combines cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and mindfulness techniques to create a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions without judgment. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I work closely with each client to develop a treatment plan that aligns with their unique needs and goals.

I specialize in working with individuals struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression. My therapeutic style is rooted in using a strength based and client centered approach. Whether you're dealing with trauma, seeking more fulfilling relationships, or looking for better coping strategies, I am here to support you on your journey toward healing.

What you can expect from our first session

In therapy, we’ll work together to identify the root causes of your challenges, while developing practical coping tools and strategies to help you live a more balanced and fulling life. I would love to help you work towards self-improvement, growth and learning coping strategies to better manage symptoms.
