Helping people recognize their strengths, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful change is at the heart of my work. I have a collaborative, person-centered approach, so therapy will be tailored to your individual needs and goals. My aim is to create a supportive and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered.
As a therapist, I draw from an eclectic mix of evidence-based modalities, including CBT, DBT, ACT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness-Based CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Seeking Safety. With over 12 years of experience in the human services field, I have provided mental health services in schools, client homes, outpatient programs, within community settings, via telehealth, and inpatient psychiatric settings.
I have experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, adults, couples, and families in both individual and group settings. My clinical work has included supporting individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, chronic and severe mental illness, substance use addiction, co-occurring diagnoses, neurodivergence, and complex trauma. I also have experience working with individuals involved in the legal system, including those working toward reintegration and re-entry, as well as members of the LGBTQ+ community and individuals navigating domestic violence, homelessness, relational issues, life transitions, grief, and loss.
Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, swimming, playing cards, solving sudoku puzzles, and spending time with family and friends. I also share my space with my cat who may occasionally make a guest appearance during virtual sessions.
