I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families ranging in age from 2-years-old to 90-years-old who present with a wide range of challenges.
Many people experience anxiety or sadness at some point in their life. Sometimes these feelings are related to a big change, a new stressor, or a longstanding challenge that has left you feeling overwhelmed and stuck. Regardless of what's going on in your life, my goal is to help you better confront, cope with, and recover from difficulties, so that you can live a more fulfilling life. I understand that the idea of therapy can seem intimidating. I see your decision to engage in treatment as a true testament to your strength.

I work with children, teens, and adults who are struggling with a variety of challenges (anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, etc.
The reality of life is that it is hard. I genuinely love what I do because I get to help people learn how to find ways to make the hard times feel more manageable, and find and create more of the beautiful moments. It truly is an honor to be able to walk alongside someone as they discover how to enhance their life. My style is client-centered, as I believe it is important to meet my clients right where they’re at on their journeys. I believe our minds are incredible: incredibly complex yet thankfully also malleable. I value being able to provide a therapy environment that is safe, calm, and confidential.

I work with children, parents, teens, and adults.
We all experience negative emotions to varying degrees in our lives. However, anxiety and depression can become a problem when they get in the way of us being able to manage the important things in our life--our work, our studies, or our relationships. If you or your child is struggling with feeling down or anxious, procrastinating, experiencing ADHD symptoms or having behavioral challenges, there are proven and effective ways of learning to overcome these negative emotions and behaviors while learning about yourself and what's important to you.

Childhood trauma can cripple us, it creates overpowering ‘intense’ emotions such as anxiety, depression, and anger when left unattended which begins to create physical symptoms to defend our bodies from the internal wounds. Has there ever been a time in your life where you have experienced this reaction? Are you experiencing these feelings based on current or past trauma from childhood, early teens, adolescence, adulthood, or as a senior? I aim to utilize a variety of actionable techniques to help reduce trauma related symptoms and make lasting changes in life.
