Are you a young adult with anxiety and no one to talk to? Are you a teenager trying to cope with social anxiety and depression? Are you a parent with a child that has some concerning behaviors who is struggling to find their place in society and you don't know where to turn for help? Have you been searching for a therapist only to be added to a year long waitlist? If so, now's your opportunity to change all that. I am currently available and accepting new clients for either in-person therapy or virtual. If the child in under 10 years old, I prefer to do in-person. For children older than 10 years old, virtual is a viable option.

Every journey begins with one step, even if you don't know where you're going. I'll meet you where you are, with compassion and without judgement.

Therapy takes time but it allows you to explore yourself, reconnect with the things that matter most to you, and pave the way for the life you want to have. Let’s do that together.
