I’m in a group practice called Mountaintop Therapy Group. I work with children, adolescents, and young adults who are struggling with a wide range of symptoms including​ ADHD, learning disabilities, developmental difficulties, autism spectrum challenges, depression, anxiety, or substance use issues. Many of my clients have been struggling with adjusting to a life change, such as grief/loss, or a change in family dynamics. If I’m unable to work with you I hope to connect you with one of the other highly skilled therapists at our group!

Hi, I'm so glad you are here taking the first step in finding a therapist. Maybe you're really struggling and need help or maybe you just feel like you are in a rut and need someone with whom you can feel safe to talk things through. Either way, I'm here for it. I find it useful for all my clients to start by building skills around being more compassionate to themselves. With a foundation of self-love, we can then begin to peel back the layers to do the deeper internal work. We will co-create goals and check in regularly to see how progress is going. In the end, you will be the expert on yourself.
