I provide specialized, evidence-based psychotherapy for adolescents and adults throughout the lifespan who are navigating a wide range of interpersonal concerns as well as mental health and life challenges. My aim is to provide a nonjudgmental environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and feel supported so they can work toward meaningful growth and change.
I pride myself on being approachable, compassionate, understanding, and collaborative. I understand that starting therapy can feel uncomfortable or possibly overwhelming, which is why I tailor treatment to each client’s individual needs, goals, and personal experiences. I enjoy working with individuals who are experiencing anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, grief, stress, interpersonal difficulties, and navigating major life transitions.
My therapeutic approach is integrative and includes evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure Therapy. I recognize the importance of flexibility and the need to incorporate additional evidence-based therapeutic strategies in order to provide individualized care.
In addition to my background in mental health counseling, I hold Master’s degrees in both Regular and Special Education and have years of experience working with students and families from diverse populations. This experience has strengthened my understanding of emotional and behavioral development, learning differences, family dynamics, and the unique challenges sometimes faced by adolescents, college students, and young adults.
I am passionate about providing high-quality, compassionate, and accessible mental health care and believe everyone deserves the opportunity to feel empowered and understood.
Outside of work, I enjoy live music, being outdoors and hearing about the latest trends from my kids.
