I am dedicated to creating a safe and inclusive space for your personal growth, supporting you on your journey toward emotional and behavioral wellness. Respect, compassion, and acceptance form the foundation of the care you will receive as we work together.
With nearly 20 years of experience and training in evidence-based practices, I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). These methods are effective for a wide range of challenges, including ADHD, anxiety, OCD, panic, depression, sexual compulsions, and trauma. I am an LGBTQ+ affirmative and trained counselor who tailors every approach to meet your unique needs and goals.
I offer individual therapeutic services for ages 12+ and look forward to assisting you in reaching your goals for change.
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, and finding the right fit is important. I believe in creating a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment. My approach is person-centered, meaning I meet you where you are, and walk alongside you through your challenges, growth, and healing. Whether you're navigating a time of crisis or working through long-standing patterns, I’m here to support you at your own pace.
I’ve been in the behavioral health field for over 13 years, with experience working in both crisis services and substance use treatment. I’ve worked with individuals and families who have been deeply impacted by addiction, trauma, and significant life transitions. These experiences have shaped my understanding of the strength it takes to seek help—and the resilience that can come from it.
My goal is to offer a therapeutic relationship that feels safe and collaborative, helping you explore, heal, and move forward with greater clarity and self-compassion.
I offer therapeutic services for individuals and couples, along with comprehensive substance use evaluations.
I believe that healing begins when we feel safe, heard, and accepted for who we are. My goal is to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your experiences, deepen your self-understanding, and work toward meaningful change.
I use an integrative approach to counseling grounded in Adlerian, cognitive behavioral (CBT), and person-centered therapies. I believe that our experiences, relationships, beliefs, and sense of belonging all influence how we understand ourselves and navigate the world. Through a collaborative therapeutic relationship, I will work alongside you to better understand these patterns, develop practical coping skills, and build greater self-awareness and confidence.
I have experience supporting individuals navigating suicidal ideation, self-harm, OCD, depression, anxiety, adjustment-related concerns, identity exploration, and developmental challenges. I bring warmth, empathy, curiosity, humor, and acceptance to my work and strive to meet everyone where they are. I believe that each person brings unique strengths, experiences, and goals into the counseling process, and I tailor my approach to meet those individual needs. My hope is to create a space where you can feel safe to be authentic, empowered to grow, and supported as you work toward meaningful change.
