I imagine that the path that brought you here has not been easy. I am here to walk along side you on this journey, aiming to create space for curiosity and empathy that is free from judgement. My hope is that in our work together, you are able to grow in ways that you may not have previously expected. Sometimes therapy is direct, as with DBT, other times therapy takes a more indirect approach as I create a place for us to sit with and explore the unknown. Together we can create a plan to help you live life more fully, presently, and mindfully. For therapy, I see individuals ages 8 and above.

Resilience. Connection. Perspective. I believe in focusing on one's strengths and capabilities and assisting a person by building on those factors. With so many demands placed on our lives, relationships may sometimes suffer. While we make plans and schedule ourselves to accommodate life, at times we make assumptions based on past experience. Are you living the life you want to be living? Do you know who you are and what brings you joy? Are your relationships all you want them to be? If the answer is yes, congratulations. If it's no, then maybe I can help. Summer availability

It is my goal to provide a safe, judgment-free space for children, adolescents, and adults working through anxiety, depression, and the everyday stresses that build up over time.
I meet my clients where they are, building on strengths and skills that they already have in order to create real and lasting growth towards their life worth living. I use an Adlerian approach to explore unmet needs, unhelpful behaviors, and core beliefs to help clients take control of their care and progress towards goals across the lifespan.

I work with individuals from children (and their caregivers) to adults to help with the important and challenging life stages.
For children & teens, emotions can feel overwhelming, so I strive to provide a place for them to learn how to cope with the rollercoaster of feelings. I partner with their families to meet them right where they are at and support connection.
