Great to meet you!

I’m a licensed psychotherapist with a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling and a background in Psychology and Women and Gender Studies. I bring a culturally competent, compassionate, and advocacy-driven approach to mental health care. In addition to my work in private practice, I have extensive experience supporting students, families and staff in school and college settings. I’ve also worked in a comprehensive rehabilitation program for adults with serious mental health concerns. I offer a grounded, supportive space to navigate stress, set boundaries, and heal from past experiences.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I work with children, adolescents, adults of all ages, couples and families facing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), trauma, bipolar disorder, addiction, relationship issues, and more. I also specialize in women’s mental health, LGBTQIA+ counseling, identity exploration, and recovery-oriented care.

What you can expect from our first session

My therapeutic style is collaborative & individualized. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered therapy, solution-focused techniques & mindfulness-based practices, I help clients clarify goals, tap into their strengths & build practical tools for meaningful & lasting change. Please reach out, I'm here to support your healing journey!
