Welcome! I work with children, teens, and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem and body image concerns, and stress management. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.
My own experience with therapy during high school shaped the therapist I am today. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with experience in schools, community mental health, and private practice, I understand the pressures young people face and tailor therapy to help build resilience, confidence, and practical coping skills.
If you or your child are feeling overwhelmed, unsure, or stuck, know that support is available. I understand how difficult these moments can be, and I’m here to walk alongside you—listening, guiding, and helping you or your child move toward understanding, growth, and healing.
