Be proud of your decision to find the right therapist for you! I work with clients from child to adult experiencing a variety of concerns including anxiety, trauma, anger, and depression. I have spent the past 5 years working as a School-Based Therapist. I compassionately and sensitively work to understand the concerns that you have in a safe and non-judgmental environment. We will work to develop and enhance your strength and resiliency, to cope and find success in life.

In my practice, I look to build a strong and trusting rapport with clients. We are then able to work together on identifying potential sources of life stressors as well as strengths. In exploring these areas, clients are able to identify and modify previous patterns of behavior in order to achieve their full potential personally, academically, and/or vocationally.

We are all trying our best, myself included. Somedays, we take small steps forward, and other days we move backward or stay still. I know it takes a lot of courage to decide to come to therapy, to take that step towards facing what gets in the way of living your best life. If you are like most of us, you have already been working hard to get there by reading, listening to podcasts, talking to friends, and searching yourself for the answers. I get it; change is hard and can feel very uncomfortable. Sometimes we need a safe space and a teammate to continue our growth. If you are looking for an ally on your journey, reach out.
