Feeling stuck? Burnt out? Overwhelmed by that inner critical voice? I work with individuals of all ages struggling with difficult life transitions, challenging relationships, feelings of anxiety, and low self-esteem. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and working with children and teens. I can work with you to break down barriers to connection, set healthy boundaries, and cultivate your inner strength. I believe that most of our suffering stems from feeling disconnected, be it from our loved ones, from our communities, or even from ourselves.
I am trained in both talk therapy and creative arts therapies. I also hold a Registered Drama Therapist licensure. I have worked in outpatient clinic settings, schools, hospitals, and private therapy practices with diverse client populations. I am strengths-focused and believe that we each have the capacity for growth, change, and healing.
As a therapist, I believe in a collaborative, relationship-based approach. I will work hand in hand with you to identify obstacles to growth and foster positive change. I approach my clients holistically and consider the impact of trauma and inequity on functioning. I am passionate about helping clients advocate for themselves and set healthy boundaries.
