I believe that everyone faces challenges throughout life — whether from past experiences, relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, or the everyday weight of stress. Whether they're a child looking to connect, an adolescent struggling to find themselves, an adult looking for ways to navigate the stress of life, or a family looking to communicate more - each one of us is seeking to belong. My role as a counselor is to offer a safe, supportive space where you can feel seen, explore your story, and begin to uncover the strength and answers within yourself.
My counseling approach is client-centered and collaborative, grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), and attachment theory. My approach is feminist, systemic, and neurodivergent-affirming, designed to support every part of your identity.
I’m passionate about supporting children, adolescents, and adults as they build confidence, connection, and self-awareness. Whether through play therapy with children and families, or relational and emotion-focused work with teens and adults, I strive to create a warm, inclusive, and collaborative space for growth and healing.

I use a variety of modalities in my practice, including Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral, Psychodynamic, and Somatic Therapy. In the first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and what your goals are. You can expect to explore how your past connects to your present, how to process trauma, how to challenge critical thoughts, and how to cope with anxiety or depression.
