Hi there and welcome! I’m really happy you found your way here! Reaching out for support can feel intimidating, but it’s a strong first step and I hope you feel proud! I work with kids, teens, and adults on things like anxiety, depression, OCD, disordered eating, high-functioning autism, and LGBTQ+ concerns. This is your space to feel safe, understood, and supported as we figure out what works best for you, making life feel a little easier along the way. I’m excited to meet you and support you on your journey! You deserve to feel supported and accepted throughout your therapeutic and life journey.

I don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Instead, I pull from different proven therapy styles and shape our work around what feels most helpful for you. This allows therapy to feel flexible, supportive, and personal. I’m also trained in EMDR, a therapy that can help reduce the emotional intensity connected to tough or overwhelming experiences.

If you’re wondering whether therapy could help but aren’t quite sure where to start, you’re in good company. You don’t need the perfect words or a clear plan. We can figure things out together when you’re ready! I look forward to chatting!

I most often utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in practice due to the fact that it evidence-based and can be successful in treating anxiety, depression, OCD, and even some trauma related concerns. I also utilize other evidence-based modalities such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
