Welcome! I am a holistic and integrative clinical therapist who specializes in working with adolescents, preteens, teens and young adults that struggle with low self-esteem/self-worth, anxiety, depression, feelings of being misunderstood & alone, suicidal ideation /self-harming tendencies, trauma, adjustment and learning difficulties, cognitive differences and emotional/behavioral dysregulation. I enjoy supporting individuals who have a desire to learn more self-care and healthy coping strategies as well as incorporate creative expression, nature-based interventions and mindfulness practices into their therapeutic healing journey .

Creating a safe environment is where I begin. I see therapy as a collaborative process that can lead you toward a greater capacity for self-awareness, trust, clarity, a sense of meaning and freedom. Life gives us surprising obstacles, which can make us feel stuck, depressed, alone or scared. With therapeutic presence, creativity and guidance, we can change our relationship to obstacles and transform. Our darkest point may mark the moment we realize we want to change. I use yoga and creative writing in my practice, and have training in mindfulness/somatic approaches, gestalt therapy, family systems, DBT, & depth psychology.
