As a therapist committed to helping youth (young children, Tweens, Teens, and early adult life) and the adults who care for them, I'm here to support you in finding peace in the chaos of your days. I am passionate about youth mental health and helping youth and their caregivers go from a place of stress and survival to inspired and thriving. Let’s get you back to a place where you can innately feel the support and love you’re always giving out to everyone around you.
Together, we’ll build skills that will help you manage the ups and downs of life, and because my approach is eclectic, treatment will always be tailored to meet your needs. I specialize in helping youth navigate Family Dynamics, School Challenges, Depression, Trauma, Self-Harm, Depression, Anxiety, Grief/Loss, Identity (LGBTQ+), and Substance use.
I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with me as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient. I provide accountability, compassion, and care.
