My therapy style is rooted in CBT, meeting the client where they’re at. From there, I can use methods and modalities to help each individual most effectively. I’m enthusiastic about helping clients and their families. I enjoy finding creative opportunities for families to rebuild trust.

Past clients have struggled with depression, anxiety, mood dysregulation, addiction, questioning their gender or sexual identity, and stage of life issues. I have worked at an in-person PHP/IOP for almost 2 years. I ran 4 hours of adolescent group therapy daily, with at least one individual and one family session per client.

I work best with people who want to help themselves (intrinsically motivated to better themselves). I am strength-based, and compassionate with strong boundaries. If you would like to meet with me, please reach out to schedule an intake appointment. I look forward to working with you.
