I provide therapeutic services for adults, adolescents and children. I incorporate aspects of applied behavior analysis, cognitive behavioral therapy, psycho-education, and family systems theories. I work with a broad spectrum of people with diverse neurological makeup including but not limited to those diagnosed with developmental disabilities, ADHD, Autism, Depression and Anxiety.

I enjoy working collaboratively with clients to identify issues and goals to determine the best course of treatment and develop a treatment plan. I see the most progress with clients who are ready to talk about change or ready for change in their individual life and/or relationships.

I offer telehealth Mental Health Counseling Services. If you have the internet and a computer or smart phone, we can have video sessions. Perhaps you are feeling that you need to start seeing a counselor, but have had barriers such as: you live in a rural area, have transportation issues, childcare problems, a chronic illness, time constraints, etc. I offer traditional counseling services, but from the comfort of your home or other safe space. Sometimes just getting to a counseling office can be difficult: and I am looking forward to bringing my counseling services to you.

My practice focuses on youth & young adults ages 12-35. I'm especially passionate about working with BIPOC individuals. As a member of the BIPOC community, ensuring a safe, supportive space & practices that are culturally competent is a priority for me. I have several years of experience working with individuals who’ve struggled with acute & complex trauma, mood disorders, anxiety, neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD & ASD, and gender/sexuality exploration. My clinical skills are rooted in trauma-informed practices utilizing evidence-based principles from CBT, CPT, PE, Motivational Interviewing & Collaborative Problem Solving.

In my work with those between the ages of 12 and 29, I take a solution-focused approach. I believe in moving forward versus backwards by helping young people envision their preferred future. I take an interest in previous achievements and believe in uncovering the motivation required to take next steps. It’s never too early, or too late, to begin planning for the type of life one desires to live.
