I am a Clinical Mental Health Counseling post-grad currently working toward licensure with experience supporting children, adolescents, and young adults in both school and clinical settings. I support individuals navigating anxiety, stress, emotional regulation, self-esteem, and life transitions. I have a strong interest in working with student-athletes and individuals managing the mental demands of performance.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) while also incorporating person-centered therapy and trauma-informed care. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. I emphasize building strong therapeutic relationships and tailoring treatment to each person.
I am committed to providing an inclusive and affirming space for all clients and identify as LGBTQ+ friendly.
