About My Clients

Our work together is centered on helping you align your choices with your hopes, not fears, while building resilience and clarity through life’s changes. I specialize in helping teenagers, students, and adults navigate symptoms of anxiety, depression, substance use challenges, change and life transitions. My hope is to encourage you to focus on what matters most, tune out unhelpful external noise, and move forward with clarity and a sense of possibility.

My Background and Approach

My approach integrates evidence-based practices with a focus on slowing down, building self-awareness, and creating meaningful, lasting change. I utilize CBT, DBT, ACT and motivational interviewing to provide a grounded, nonjudgemental space where you can better understand yourself and move forward with clarity and intention. We will collaborate on deeper therapeutic work that can include skill development, strategies to manage change, and relapse prevention with the goal of sustainable improvement.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My values guide the process: patience in the work, intention in decisions, commitment to growth, kindness toward yourself, moderation in behavior, and openness to excitement in what’s ahead.
