My ideal client would put as much effort as they are ready to in that moment, day, or week to continue prioritizing their mental health needs. Over time, I hope to support each person in identifying what is helpful vs. harmful to their overall well-being. I look forward to supporting individuals navigating life transitions, women's issues, those in need of validation and perspective-taking, struggling with anxiety, searching for answers and healing from traumatic experiences, feeling "stuck," and individuals hoping for support with executive functioning challenges, sensory challenges, or complex social interactions.

It takes a lot of courage to seek help, especially in a world that unfairly stigmatizes getting psychological services. Lack of understanding of what therapy is and how people can benefit from it prevents some from using professional services to know and understand themselves better, to improve relationships, and to live more meaningful, fulfilling lives regardless of their challenges. Sometimes people have troubling symptoms due to anxiety, depression, and other disorders and need help to address these symptoms and their causes. I use a variety of approaches to help clients. My goal is to empower clients through a healthy, therapeutic relationship.

Are you an adolescent or young adult—or the concerned parent of one—who struggles to cope with academic and social pressures? Perhaps underlying trauma has manifested into anxiety, depression, substance abuse, or other self-harming behaviors that interfere with their ambitions and dreams for the future. Taking a brain-based approach to therapy, my passion is helping teens and young adults work through difficult experiences to learn how to thrive instead of survive and get their lives back on a positive trajectory. As someone who has worked at my own healing, I've experienced how powerful and life-changing healing from trauma can be.
