Hi and welcome! I provide empathic, affirming, and strengths-based therapy for individuals and couples (ages 18+). My approach is integrative, collaborative, and tailored to fit your individual needs. I specialize in treating depression, trauma and PTSD, and grief, as well as working with general mental health concerns. I provide evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for trauma and Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
My training in both inpatient and outpatient settings has prepared me to work with a diverse range of clients and concerns, including veterans, healthcare workers and first responders, college students, BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals. I am passionate about dismantling stigma surrounding mental health, improving access to care, and championing social justice.
Outside of work, I am an avid adventurer! Whether it's traveling to new places, hiking, biking, or simply spending time with family and friends, I find joy in exploration and connection. I believe that finding the right therapist is an important part of the change process. I would be happy to schedule a phone call to learn whether we might be a good fit!
