I possess the magic, quick-fix cure for all of your problems — just kidding. However, I do specialize in relationship stress/breakups, people-pleasing, overthinking, breaking free from old patterns that aren't getting you anywhere, being your own worst enemy/personal torture artist, and removing all that pesky low self-worth/doubt, burnout, uncertainty, hopelessness, etc. I have extensive experience working with teens, perinatal mental health, trauma histories, mood disorders, life transitions, and grief/loss. If you're like, "hey, that's me!" and "I'm really ready to feel better" — let's get to work.

As a professional and a fellow client, I know this process from both sides of the couch. My foundation is in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but I pull from techniques beyond CBT to provide a collaborative experience that won't feel rigid. A note for couples: I have a nontraditional approach to this type of work. My website is linked if you want to learn more!

I'm genuinely excited to work with humans on any/all paths, and I'm continuously working toward better multicultural competence and LGBTQI+ allyship. Disclaimer: be prepared for humor and nerdy references. Please reach out however you feel comfy (email, text, call) to do a consult call or ask any questions you have.

My foundation is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on unlocking the ability to recognize, understand, & re-wire your thoughts to get real, targeted results & make long-term change happen. Still, I believe good therapy should align and accommodate your specific needs and goals, so I'm focused on adapting this approach for each of my clients to be successful.
