Clients have expressed that my positivity and humor, mixed with realism and accountability, are helpful in the therapy process. Together we will build an authentic connection, get to the core of recurring problems, and identify unique strategies to improve your life. One of my favorite quotes is, “No one knows you better than yourself”. Even so, at times we struggle to heal and make changes on our own. Sometimes we need help evaluating our relationships and life experiences from a new perspective.
I have worked in a variety of areas in the mental health field, including college counseling, in-home family counseling, and outpatient counseling providing individual, family, and couples counseling. I am a direct and active therapist. I combine active listening and emotional validation with thought-provoking and, at times, challenging questions.
My passions include working with teens and adults with anxiety, depression, career issues, OCD, and relationship issues. My goal is to provide a space for you to feel comfortable being your true, authentic self, and help you explore changes for a happier present and future. It would be an honor to meet you and support you in your journey.

I primarily utilize Emotion-Focused therapy, Narrative therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment therapy to help clients identify their emotions and communication/relationship patterns, explore their life story, and implement desired changes for a more fulfilling life. For OCD, I utilize Exposure and Response Prevention and ACT to reduce obsessions/intrusive thoughts, compulsions, and distress.
