About My Clients

The prospect of starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but prioritizing your mental health is important and necessary to create balance and to maintain emotional stability. I am here to provide support to those who struggle with anxiety, stress, depression or who need help navigating difficult life transitions and changes

My Background and Approach

I have over 15 years in clinical experience working with adults, teens and children in community mental health centers, hospitals and correctional and residential treatment facilities. I have my LCSW supervisory certificate and have a number of years experience working with people on the autism spectrum. I use a strengths based perspective and consistently practice cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. I believe that therapy should be a collaborative effort. We will work together to identify goals and to help find the most effective strategies to bring peace and stability to your life.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Although therapy can sometimes be a difficult process, it doesn't have to be! I incorporate fun and humor into the therapeutic process because it can be part of healing. I believe pets are healing. I am huge advocate for animals and animal rescue. I am a LGBTQ+ ally and support local gun control activism. To decompress, I enjoy building Lego sets, listening to music and watching movies. I love going to concerts and sporting events in my spare and try to never stop laughing. “Be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.” ― Max Ehrmann.
