As a counselor, I seek to collaborate with individuals 10 and up toward the fullest version of themselves. I work with those from various walks of life, and populations, and specialize in helping them navigate symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, and trauma (including Adverse Childhood Experiences).
I’m trained to utilize trauma-informed and Humanistic techniques designed to foster an environment of curious exploration as we process all that brings you to counseling.
If you find yourself seeking a compassionate and collaborative space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported in becoming the fullest version of yourself, I’d love to assist you in the work you hope to accomplish.

I often use techniques and frameworks associated with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Our first three sessions will focus on building a rapport, defining achievable goals, and determining the best path and pace forward. Throughout treatment, you'll be encouraged to meet challenges with curiosity as you apply skills and work toward noticeable change.
