I work with teens and adults from all walks of life, supporting them through many different experiences and challenges. Together we set clear goals and work side by side, offering guidance and encouragement along the way. I have a lot of experience helping people manage depression, anxiety, and life transitions, build confidence, heal from trauma, and learn healthy boundaries. My practice is all about making sure you feel safe, supported, and confident as you make personal growth. 

I love to build a strong rapport with clients early on, so they feel safe enough to address the difficult things that may arise in therapy. My approach to therapy primarily involves Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and trauma-informed care. I focus on helping clients feel empowered and ready to take on life's challenges. 

No matter where you are in your journey, you can be confident that you have a partner in this process. Together, we will celebrate your successes, navigate challenges, and build on your strengths to help you move forward. You don't have to face this alone; with support and understanding, you can achieve lasting, meaningful change.

I am a licensed mental health therapist with experience working with children, adolescents, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, and relationship challenges.

I take a collaborative, strengths-based approach focused on building practical skills for daily life. Using CBT, TF-CBT, and family systems strategies, I help clients manage anxiety, process trauma, and improve communication.
