I enjoy working with children, teens, college students, and young adults, especially those navigating the uncertainty and pressure that often comes with growing up and major life transitions. Clients may be struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, low self-esteem, grief, or feeling overwhelmed by school, relationships, or identity. Some come in not knowing exactly what’s wrong, just that things feel heavy. I offer a collaborative, supportive space to slow things down, make sense of what’s happening, and build tools to feel more grounded and confident.
I use a trauma-informed, collaborative approach tailored to each client’s needs and strengths. I few of the main approaches I draw from include CBT, DBT, ERP, ACT, IFS, mindfulness, and expressive therapies like play and art therapy to help clients build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and better understand themselves in a supportive space.
You don’t have to have everything figured out to start therapy. My goal is to meet you where you are, with care and curiosity, no matter what you’re going through. Together, we can explore what’s getting in the way and build tools that support real, lasting change. Healing is a collaborative process—you don’t have to do it alone.
