I work with adults and adolescents from every background, particularly members of the LGBTQIA+ community and those who have experienced trauma in their lives. I am passionate about helping individuals process and heal from traumatic life experiences and helping clients navigate whatever life throws at them, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, disordered eating, faith transitions, grief, and trauma.
As a clinician, I believe that my most important role is to create a safe and supportive environment that promotes healing and self-confidence. I know that healing can be achieved by eliminating feelings of shame and developing effective coping skills through evidence-based treatment in a safe and non-judgmental environment.
Everyone deserves some help as we try to navigate life, which can be both beautiful and overwhelming. I strive to help my clients view themselves with honesty and acceptance, which can lead to greater freedom, peace, and connection in their lives. I offer in-person and telehealth sessions, as well as online scheduling on the AAC website.
