Welcome! I primarily work with adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, identity exploration, life transitions, and communication challenges. I am dedicated to helping clients develop practical tools for growth and build lasting confidence in themselves and their ability to navigate life’s challenges.
My therapeutic approach is hands on. Together, we will set goals and find manageable steps to achieve them. I primarily utilize evidence-based practices like CBT, DBT, ACT, and solution focused therapy, but sessions will be tailored to your specific needs.
Taking the first step can be challenging, but you do not have to face it alone. If you think we would be a good fit, reach out to me directly or schedule an appointment through the Ellie Mental Health website. I look forward to meeting you!
