About My Clients

Are you always a little bit afraid that an anxiety attack is waiting around the corner? Have you been hit with surprise anxiety more times than you can count? I know exactly what you're feeling: the pounding chest, the shortness of breath, the feeling that the walls are closing in and you need out NOW. Let's get you to a place where you don't have to suffer through these anymore. CBT practices can reduce anxiety tremendously, and I look forward to teaching you tools to take your life back.

My Background and Approach

I believe therapy is a shared journey between therapist and client. I aim to cultivate a space where individuals feel safe to tell their stories, connect with their authentic selves, and explore creative expression as a means of healing. I primarily work with children (5+), adolescents, and adults. Some of my specialties include anxiety, depression, Borderline Personality Disorder, behavioral issues, trauma, suicidal ideation, grief, family conflicts, and Adjustment Disorder. I aim to provide psychoeducation so that my clients can learn more about themselves and what they are experiencing. I recognize that each client is unique, so I tailor my approach and sessions to meet each individual’s needs. I draw from a range of therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Psychoeducation

I offer online counseling in the following states:
