About My Clients

I work with teens and adults (12+), including those navigating anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, compassion fatigue, body image concerns, or challenging life transitions. I’ve supported at-risk youth, first responders, college students, individuals in the prison system, and those who often care for others before themselves. No matter what who I'm working with, I always try to show up with empathy, curiosity, and care. Most importantly, I will meet you wherever you are in the process.

My Background and Approach

Depending on your goals, I'll bring in different approaches that can help us understand patterns, build new tools, and make meaningful changes. We may look at how your thoughts and behaviors are connected with CBT, work on staying grounded and managing strong emotions with DBT, explore motivation for change when you're feeling stuck with Motivational Interviewing, or making space to understand how past experiences may still be affecting you today. Prior to working at helpful I worked in community mental health, school systems, residential tx, prison settings & other private practice settings. When I'm not working I enjoy chasing the sun, sipping iced coffee & spending quality time with family. I'm also an animal lover and welcome any pet appearances in session! Like many, I'm figuring it out as I go by learning, growing, and doing my best to show up with care and authenticity every day.
