I believe therapy should feel supportive, collaborative, and tailored to who you are. I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, chronic illness, and other emotional challenges. My experience spans a variety of settings, including nonprofit services, case management, and autism support, giving me a broad understanding of the many factors that influence mental health throughout life.
I specialize in trauma across the lifespan and am passionate about providing affirming, inclusive care for neurodivergent individuals and members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
I recognize that each person's experiences, identities, and strengths are unique, and I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, respected, and understood. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your child, my goal is to help you navigate challenges, deepen self-understanding, and move toward meaningful and lasting growth.
