I work well with clients of color or those who are LGBTQ+ and thrive in spaces where they are not welcomed or celebrated. I have experience helping these clients increase their levels of self esteem, their relationships, and their understanding of the world around them. I understand the issues that can arise from growing up in these spaces if mental health symptoms are gone unaddressed. In my work, I address family issues, relationship concerns, and a number of diagnoses that today's youth face in an ever-changing world.
I specialize in working with pre-teens, teenagers, and young adults with a range of mental health concerns and symptoms. These inlcude ADHD, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, OCD, autism, and more. I use a variety of research-supported methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and ACT.
I view therapy as a collaborative space that can be whatever it needs to be depending on what the client is experiencing in the present moment. Healing can take many forms and is not linear. If you are in need of a judgement-free, inquisitive voice and the space to discover yourself, feel free to reach out!
