As a former school counselor, I am extremely passionate about supporting children and teens through struggles with their mental health. However, I also feel honored to walk through major life moments with my adult clients. I have experience working with populations (all ages) experiencing depression, anxiety, OCD, trauma, grief, and life transitions. I aim to assist with management of symptoms as well as building coping strategies and processing life experiences.
I have a background working as an advocate for survivors of domestic violence (children and adults). During this time, I received significant training in trauma-informed care. Additionally, I have the experience of working in the education field as a school counselor. I am very familiar with the struggles faced by educators as well as children.
My goal as a therapist is to create a safe space where my clients feel comfortable sharing about their personal experiences. Coming to therapy is an extremely vulnerable experience and I aim to make the transition as natural as possible. I will spend time learning about who you are and what you hope to gain from your experience in therapy.
