Have you been feeling ready for a change but find yourself repeating old behaviors and patterns? We've all been there! Whether you're struggling with stress of academic life, managing anxiety and depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life changes, I am here to offer support. I have a passion working with college students, teens and adolescents, and adults who may struggle with symptoms such as anxiety, depression, OCD, low self-esteem, relationship/family concerns, life transitions, and stress.
My therapeutic approach is person-centered and solutions focused. I value rapport, honesty, humor, and collaboration in my practices. My goal is to create a space that encourages trust and an open dialogue, allowing you to explore concerns without fear of judgement. I am committed to fostering a welcoming environment where you feel safe, valued, and heard.
I look forward to giving you the opportunity to share your story, goals, and expectations in therapy. Reaching out can be intimidating, but I encourage you to call or email to set up your free initial screening. I offer both in person and tele-health sessions. If you or a loved one are interested in taking the first step, please don't hesitate to reach out!
