Ready to prioritize your mental health and well-being? Let's do this! As a therapist (and a human being), I get that life can be overwhelming. Whether it's battling anxiety, depression, surviving tough times, or just trying to figure out your next steps—I'm here to support you. I work with clients who have a desire to be their authentic self, are navigating life transitions, struggle with setting healthy boundaries, or may be feeling like something is “missing” in their life. My clients share that I have been a positive support in helping them work through their challenges, in addition to creating a life they desire.
My approach to therapy is rooted in an eclectic, values-based, and trauma informed perspective. I utilize EMDR, Brainspotting, DBT, ACT, parts-work, and strengths-based approaches. During our time together, we’ll focus on utilizing your own experiences to inform therapeutic goals and discover your inner strengths!
As an out-of-network therapist, a superbill can be provided if you are interested in using your out-of-network insurance benefits. I offer virtual sessions, Monday-Thursday, to support your lifestyle. When you’re ready, I’d be honored to work with you!
