Welcome! I am currently accepting new Virtual/Telehealth clients and have same day/next day availability. I have a passion for working with adolescents and adults experiencing an eating disorder, poor body image, depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma, low self-esteem, anger, peer and family challenges, boundary challenges, co-dependency, stress, and life transitions. I utilize multiple approaches in my work, such as EMDR, CBT, DBT, internal family systems, family therapy, art therapy, prompted journaling, psychoeducation, and mindfulness. I am a LGBTQIA ally.
I have advanced training specifically in EMDR to treat Eating Disorders. I strive to provide my clients with a safe and supportive environment to process and achieve their goals. I have previous work experience in community mental health agencies, animal-assisted therapy, and outpatient mental health care.
I have four years of counseling experience. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Arizona, and my Masters of Social Work from Arizona State University. I look forward to working with you!
