I am a CBT/Person-Centered therapist who is committed to helping adults, teens, and children through their growth journey. I have worked with individuals, families, couples, and groups of all ages, supporting clients through concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, identity exploration, and life transitions. I worked for three years with at-risk youth and their families. My role was to help families increase positive communication and create positive family structures. I have a passion for working with teens and families, but I enjoy working with adults with relational concerns.
I approach therapy with empathy, curiosity, and respect for each client’s unique story. I am committed to creating a safe, welcoming space where clients feel supported and understood. I know that life can be overwhelming, it can be scary to navigate new situations, and relationships take work. I'm here to help navigate those situations with you.
I believe every person has a unique story and I tailor treatment to honor each individual’s experiences and goals. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing and growth. Click on my website to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my sessions to take a deeper look into your current thoughts and beliefs and to provide coping skills for feelings of anxiety and stress. I also like to use person-centered to create a safe, judgement-free space to help with your journey of healing.
