I have knowledge and practice of many prominent counseling theories and will adapt my counseling approach to your needs and goals. I tend to implement a solution-focused approach in order to not only focus in on what your goals are, but also to get you to those goals as quickly as possible. While we develop solutions for your goals, I tend to think outside of the box and try to find unique solutions that are catered to you individually.

People long to connect. Research shows a newborn's first needs include bonding with their caregivers and that this desire for safety in attachment never fades. I believe our minds are healthiest when we are able to connect—to ourselves, to those around us, to what is beyond. But a complex world creates obstacles, and it avails us to articulate our human experience with compassion and to face wounds we have received and have inflicted. It is a privilege for me to walk alongside clients for a time, to be a compassionate sounding board and collaborator in the pursuit of a healthier mind and a more liberated spirit.

I offer compassionate, empowering therapy from a biopsychosocial and trauma-informed lens.

I have clinical and research experience working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, identity crises, trauma, relationship issues and ADHD.

My theoretical orientation is varied depending on your needs. I help you to formulate your therapy goals in a collaborative fashion. Although therapy can be distressing at times, I often use humor to decrease distress and increase coping skills. In addition, I use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) techniques to build resources for positive coping skills. EMDR can help you face uncomfortable emotions, such as anxiety or depression, and reprocess traumatic memories.

I have worked as a therapist in a wide range of settings for over a decade now, and during this time, the one thing that I have seen repeatedly is that the therapeutic process is wholly unique for each individual client, whether they be middle schoolers, college students, or senior adults. When it comes to my therapeutic approach, it is relational and person-centered. I have found that there is no “one-size-fits-all” template. I firmly believe that you, the client, are the expert on you, and my job is to facilitate your journey towards healing and trusting yourself.
