About My Clients
I primarily work with adolescents and young adults providing general mental health care through life stressors. I also specialize in treating eating disorders, anxiety, trauma, and body image issues.
My Background and Approach
I am an LCSW and I will always see you as a person first. I work alongside adolescents, young adults, and families/parents as we all tackle mental health struggles and build wellness through our personal values, commitments, communication, and, especially, through connection. I specialize in treating adolescents and young adults struggling with anxiety, depression, life stressors, trauma, and eating disorders. Throughout, I bring warmth, humor, understanding, and assertive support. From working at multiple levels of care, I have a unique perspective to healing, recovery building, and mental health wellness. I have an eclectic and personalized approach, drawing from cognitive and acceptance based orientations. I incorporate insight-oriented processes to inspire change, promote self-value, and strengthen skills.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
We all have struggles and difficulties in life - we do not have to keep hiding such away. So let's open up, gain more awareness of mental health, and identify beliefs and stigmas holding us back from being our best selves. Therapy is more than "just talking," depression is more than "stop being sad," and eating disorders are more than "just eat." Life is more than "just be or feel better."
