My website

I work with adults, young adults, and teens facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, relationship concerns, identity development, and life transitions. I also support individuals with autism spectrum disorder and learning differences. Therapy with me is collaborative, affirming, and tailored to each client’s goals, with an emphasis on emotional regulation, resilience, self-awareness, and healthy relationships. When working with teens, I may also offer parent or family sessions to provide support, strengthen communication, and help reinforce progress outside of therapy.

I help individuals and families develop practical coping skills, deepen self-understanding, and navigate life’s challenges, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and neurodivergence. My approach is collaborative and personalized, drawing from both traditional talk therapy and experiential techniques when appropriate.

I understand the unique challenges that come with mental health, and I'm here to support you or your loved one on the journey to greater confidence and self-acceptance. Together, we can work through the obstacles and build the skills needed to thrive. If you're ready to take the next step, I’d love to hear more about your story and how I can help!
