I am dedicated to providing the highest quality care to those I work with. I have a specialized interest in working with children, young adults, and their families, managing anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders. I utilize a strengths-based approach to help those I work with meet their goals and improve their quality of life. Therapy should feel like a collaborative and supportive process. I aim to help those I work with feel comfortable exploring how they can best navigate a broad range of challenges and lead fulfilling lives.
I have experience supporting individuals with a broad range of challenges. I am trained in providing evidence-based treatments, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), Behavioral Parent Training (BPT), parent-child interaction therapy for selective mutism (PCIT-SM), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ExRP).
Collaborative care is a central pillar of my work. I support individuals in reaching their potential and building their self-efficacy in handling a range of life's challenges. I invite you to reach out if you think we might be a good fit to work together, and I look forward to connecting!
