About My Clients

I strive to approach therapy from a compassionate, inquisitive, empathetic, and humanistic lens. My goal is for the therapeutic space to feel welcoming and affirming. I work with adults 19+, specializing in generalized anxiety, social anxiety, complex trauma, ADHD and Autism, PMDD, life with chronic illnesses, and relational challenges. While I see those older than 19, I particularly enjoy working with young adults or those navigating life transitions.

My Background and Approach

With a person-centered approach, I work to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore and process thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your pace. My therapeutic style is not one size fits all; we will work together to trial skills and tools across various modalities that might be applicable, including but not limited to: CBT, DBT, ACT, CPT, and IPT (and I will ensure you know the what & why). I am passionate about the fact that mental health is a major component of the overall health and wellness of all persons. I believe in the inherent potential of every individual and find it incredibly rewarding to witness individuals overcome obstacles, develop new coping strategies, and work toward self-actualization and enhanced self-worth. I consider it a privilege to be a part of others' journeys.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

With a vast background across a diverse range of community based and school settings, I am passionate about things like social justice, disability rights, and know that mental health must be considered in overall wellness. I strive to provide a safe space to process life's challenges as well as wins.
