About My Clients

My clients often feel overwhelmed by the pressure to hold it all together while quietly struggling with anxiety, burnout or self-doubt. Many of the people I support are navigating identity exploration, relationship challenges, low self-esteem or the emotional weight of high-pressure environments where they’ve learned to push through without slowing down. I’m especially drawn to working with creatives, young adults and anyone searching for a deeper connection with themselves.

My Background and Approach

My background in the performing arts brings a deeply expressive and human lens to the way I approach therapy. Earning my MFA and BFA helped me understand how our stories, emotions and identities shape the way we move through the world. I carry that understanding into my work by creating a space where clients feel genuinely seen, heard and supported without judgment. I’m especially drawn to the intersection of expressive arts and mental health and I often lean into creativity, curiosity and reflection to help clients better understand themselves and move through difficult experiences. This can be especially helpful for individuals who struggle to put feelings into words or who feel disconnected from themselves after periods of of stress, change or emotional exhaustion.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
