As a licensed professional counselor I am dedicated to creating a safe and supportive environment where my clients can explore and overcome their challenges. My practice is grounded in a deep respect for each person’s unique journey, with a focus on working with neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, suicidal, and self harming clients. I find working with 'tough cookies'—clients who meet life's challenges with a strong and determined spirit—especially rewarding. Whether my client is a kiddo with big feelings and behavioral issues or a young adult struggling to find a reason to keep going, I am happy to join with them as they work towards recovery.
I have specialized training in Child-Centered Play Therapy, which allows me to connect with clients as young as three in a way that is both fun and effective. Additionally, my training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) equips me to support clients struggling with emotional dysregulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal relationships.
Whether you’re seeking support for yourself or a your little one, I am here to offer compassionate guidance and practical tools. Together, we can work towards your goals and foster a deeper understanding of yourself and your life experiences. I look forward to the opportunity to walk with you on your journey to a life worth living!
