I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling and over five years of experience supporting adults, children, and adolescents through some of life’s most difficult challenges. I focus on working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, PTSD, and the impacts of sexual assault.
I use a blend of evidence-based approaches—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and play therapy—to meet each child where they are and help them move toward healing in a way that feels safe and developmentally appropriate.
My goal is to create a warm, supportive space where young clients can express themselves freely, learn coping skills, and begin to make sense of their experiences. Whether I’m working with a child experiencing panic attacks, a teen processing trauma, I approach each case with compassion, curiosity, and a commitment to fostering resilience and hope.
