I’m a Licensed Clinician (LCPC) with over 13 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families in both school-based and community mental health settings. I am grounded in the belief that behavior and symptoms are forms of communication. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, past trauma, relationship challenges, depression, or simply feeling stuck, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Therapy can be a place to slow down, gain clarity, and reconnect with your capacity for growth and change.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral concerns, and relational dynamics. My approach is client-centered and trauma-informed, grounded in the belief that behavior and symptoms are forms of communication. When we take the time to understand what’s beneath the surface, we can begin to make sense of patterns, reduce overwhelm, and create space
Clients often experience me as steady, thoughtful, and easy to talk to. I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship where you feel safe enough to be real - without judgment or pressure. From there, we work collaboratively to process experiences, strengthen coping skills, and move toward goals that feel both realistic and sustainable.
