New Openings: FALL 2025. I work with children and parents in need of support in dealing with a variety of child or family related challenges. Parents truly are the experts of their children and thus their role in the therapeutic process is vital. I believe in interdisciplinary collaboration in order to best meet the needs of every child and family.

Struggling with substance use can feel hopeless, overwhelming, and isolating, but you don’t have to face it alone. I help individuals and families navigate addiction, rebuild self-esteem, find purpose, and develop healthier coping strategies. Life’s challenges can create barriers to growth, leading to behaviors that no longer serve you. Together, we’ll identify obstacles, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful change. You already have the inner strength to heal—I’m here to provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you feel heard and supported.

After working in preventative mental health care as a mindfulness educator, I gravitated towards social work because of its emphasis on exploring ourselves in the context of the world around us. My orientation as a mental health counselor is rooted in curiosity about what it means to be human and to heal. It is also grounded in the belief that any work we do to understand ourselves more deeply can have a profound reparative impact that goes beyond the individual into the community at large. Counseling is an opportunity to connect with someone who can hold space to observe and learn from your personal experience.
