Currently not accepting new clients due to upcoming maternity leave. — I work with children, teens, and adults and offer in-person and telehealth services. Working with adults, I can help you overcome any obstacles that you may be experiencing, strengthen those relationships most important to you, and find the peace, fullness, and happiness that you want and deserve. I also have extensive clinical experience working with children/teens and their families. I seek to create a safe, therapeutic space for children to open up—directly or indirectly—through the utilization of varying child therapy and integrative approaches.
I take a warm, nonjudgmental approach and accept every person where they are at in their journey. Using primarily psychodynamic and attachment theories, I aim to discover underlying subconscious motivations, increase clients' awareness of their inner self, and help my clients resolve undesirable patterns that may influence their behavior and relationships.
I work with people of all ages and backgrounds and enjoy seeing how distinct experiences and perspectives impact the uniqueness of each person’s therapy process. I am happy to incorporate a Christian perspective into therapy upon request, but I am also able to work from a secular, clinically-neutral perspective as well.
