With over five years of experience, I've had the privilege of supporting teens, young adults, and adults navigating various life changes. I draw from different therapeutic approaches, with a strong focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT).
My clinical experience encompasses addressing substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders, as well as supporting individuals across various stages of human development in navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD, and family/couple's dynamics.
I believe clear and compassionate communication is essential for your growth. I'm dedicated to understanding and supporting your unique way of processing and expressing yourself, fostering a space where you feel truly heard and understood. Unconditional, positive regard is the heart of my practice.

Therapy is best when it's viewed as a partnership. I meet clients where they are at and use various techniques of talk therapy to explore things hidden to the individual that contribute to the developement of their self-schema. Effective communication is a primary component in any relationship and focus and strategies are included within therapy sessions.

CBT is a primary component in all of my sessions to discover how (and often why) clients hold the particular beliefs they have of themselves and the world.
