You may be facing a range of mental health challenges as you navigate through middle school, high school, and college. As you seek to understand your unique personal identity while feeling social, peer, and academic pressure, it may be difficult to regulate your emotions and lead from a grounded and calm mindset.
Together we will explore the tools necessary for creating a life of wellness and balance. I strive to provide a safe and open environment for you to discuss the many complex issues in your life. We will collaborate to find ways to empower you to realize personal growth with a firm understanding of your identity.
I am here to support you on your therapeutic journey. Set up an appointment with me through MellaHealth, where I am currently accepting new clients. The Mellahealth Care Coordinator will address any questions and schedule your first in-person or virtual session.
