Fun Fact:

When I am not working, you will find me in the garden, hanging out with my Goats and Chickens while they freerange, or reading a good book! My favorite book is Morning Glory, and my favorite movie is The Legion, with Tom Cruise-who doesn’t love unicorns.

My Approach

I believe that therapy is most effective when clients feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, with an emphasis on creating a safe, judgment-free space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace. I value building a strong therapeutic relationship and helping clients recognize their strengths while developing practical tools to navigate life's challenges. My goal is for clients to leave sessions feeling supported, empowered, and hopeful.

Who I work with 

I enjoy working with teens, young adults, adults, and older adults from all backgrounds and walks of life. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, grief, self-esteem concerns, or simply looking for support and personal growth, I strive to create a welcoming and inclusive space where you feel heard, respected, and understood. I value meeting each person where they are and tailoring therapy to their unique experiences, strengths, and goals.

How I work

My sessions are collaborative and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I use a person-centered approach as the foundation of my work while incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Sessions often include supportive conversation, skill-building, and practical strategies that clients can apply in their daily lives. I aim to balance empathy with gentle encouragement, helping clients build insight, resilience, and confidence as they move toward meaningful change.

Getting Started

I accept most insurances. I am available on Saturday in person or virtually from 9am to 2pm, Tues/Thurs evenings virtually from 5:30-8:30pm, if you need something in between these times, I can be flexible.
