I specialize in working with college-aged students, transitional-aged youth ages 18 to 26, and women dealing with issues including anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, career conflict, and general stress.
We all want to feel more secure, stable, and essentially "good enough," but the uncertainties of life can throw us off balance. We are not broken. I believe that therapy provides the much-needed insight and awareness to help us on the journey of growth and self-acceptance. It is through this therapeutic relationship that we can transform our perceptions of ourselves and develop more positive coping skills, better self-care, and new thought patterns. It is my passion to create a warm, calm, safe space in which clients feel comfortable exploring the negative thoughts and stressful situations life can bring.

Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who offers non-judgmental, compassionate, and safe counseling to adolescents and adults. I know it is hard to decide to seek out counseling, so I am sensitive to the difficulty it is opening up to someone new. I specialize in assisting individuals dealing with life changes, grief and loss, career changes, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and understanding the wide range of emotions facing infertility and adoption. I aim to be an interactive, solution-focused, and cognitive-behavioral therapist.
