About My Clients

I specialize with teenagers and adults of all ages who struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, anger management, and life-stage transitions. I celebrate diversity and invite you to come as you are.

My Background and Approach

I employ various evidence-based practices including mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral therapy. I believe it is important for everyone to have an adequate support system. I am an ally for the LGBTQ+ community, and accept everyone for who they are and who they want to be. I also have experience with supporting those who are experiencing caregiver burnout, chronic illness, and experience with crisis intervention.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in providing support for everyone, and that we all need a support system throughout our lives. I believe that offering support and an ear to talk to can help make a live changing difference for some people. I work on the National Suicide Lifeline and see the difference that it makes to have someone listen and to care. I am also an equestrian and am a big believer in the power that animals have to help use heal and provide us comfort.
