About My Clients

Everyone Has a Story Anyone who desires a place to express themselves and find clarity is a good candidate for therapy. There is no specific circumstance or type of challenge that qualifies a person to get help. You may want to consider therapy if you have... Received a cancer diagnosis Been considering preserving your fertility Discovered that a loved one is battling cancer Found yourself unsure of your future Struggled to interact with your family and friends Experienced grief or loss

My Background and Approach

I take a humanist approach to therapy and tailor my services to the individual in front of me. Using current modalities, I work with adolescents and young adults (AYAs), and adults to feel seen and validated through life's challenges.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Throughout my career, I’ve had a great interest in supporting AYAs with cancer. Young adulthood is a time of life already filled with challenges, whether these be pursuing further education or a career, dating or starting a family, or finding independence away from your caregivers. I provide a safe space for my clients to share their fears, frustrations, and difficulties as they face new challenges.
