I work with college students and young adults facing identity, pressure, and life transitions. Many feel stuck between personal values, family expectations, and who they’re becoming. I have experience supporting clients navigating questions of identity, including those from faith-based backgrounds. I also work with families who want to better understand and support their child. My approach is practical, direct, and focused on helping clients build clarity, confidence, and meaningful change.
I help clients navigate identity, anxiety, and life transitions, especially when personal values and family expectations conflict. Using a practical, collaborative approach grounded in Adlerian and CBT methods, I focus on building clarity, confidence, and real-world skills for lasting change.
I help clients make sense of identity, anxiety, and life transitions, especially when personal values and family expectations conflict. My approach is practical, direct, and collaborative, focused on building clarity, confidence, and real-world skills that create lasting change.

My approach is Adlerian at its core, I focus on understanding patterns, purpose, and how your past and present shape your choices. I combine this with a flexible toolbox of skills, including CBT, DBT, and practical coping strategies, so sessions help you not just reflect, but to actually make things work in daily life.
