I firmly believe that every person has the capacity to improve their mental health. Therapy has immensely improved my own outlook on life, and I consider it a privilege to walk with others in their own healing processes. I follow a strength-based approach, in which your values, abilities, and all the things that make you you are highlighted, celebrated, and used to guide your mental health journey. I empower each individual I work with to be able to confidently address difficult feelings, trauma, relationship problems, and life transitions.

​

I primarily utilize CBT to help clients understand the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I have experience practicing the Trauma-Focused CBT model with trauma survivors under 18. I emphasize psychoeducation to deconstruct stigma and provide practical strategies including mindfulness, communication skills, and self-advocacy tools.

​

When you work with me, you are in the driver's seat. I am here to empower you in the journey and to help you navigate life's winding roads, but ultimately, you are in control of your treatment. I provide a warm environment in which you are welcome to laugh, cry, and be yourself. I have immediate availability and can see individuals ages 10 and up!
