I help adolescents and adults navigate difficulties in their lives. Some of the treatment areas in which I work relate to identity (e.g., LGBTQ+ individuals), anxiety, transitions, values, trauma, and mood. My goal is to create an open and safe environment from which to explore, process, and learn. It is an honor to get to know you and to work collaboratively to address whatever brings you to therapy. I look forward to speaking with you.
My approach to therapy integrates several theoretical models. Throughout therapy, I check in to make sure that the work we do is in line with your preferences. For example, some clients prefer more open-ended talk therapy, while others want to more heavily work on learning tools. It is through collaboration and our growing relationship that the work is done.
I am currently accepting new patients and offer free 15-minute phone consultations to answer any questions you may have regarding my services.

My theoretical approach to treatment is integrative with a strong focus on psychodynamic approaches and a multicultural perspective. People aren't cookies, so I don't use a cookie cutter model for therapy. Instead, I provide individualized therapy tailored to your unique history, capacities, and needs.
