I am interested in meeting and working with clients at all stages of life, with all needs. Although I hold a special place in my heart for children, adolescents and young adults coping with ADHD, life transitions, anxiety, depression, or working through traumatic experiences.
I specialize in CBT, goal-oriented work, and mindfulness practices. I offer Telehealth and in person sessions.
I have three years of experience in the academic setting, as a School Psychologist. I made the shift to private practice in summer of 2024, in hopes of being able to work with more of the population at an individual treatment level. If you are interested in learning and working together on reaching your functional and mental health goals, reach out!

I work with clients who are struggling with navigating life transitions, coping with trauma, and developing emotional regulation skills. During our initial sessions, we will discuss any issues that brought you to therapy, develop a treatment plan and goal set to monitor progress. My goal is to help you lighten the weight of negative emotions and develop a toolbox to pull from outside of therapy.

In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to support you. I like to use an eclectic approach with a focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and a Person Centered approach. CBT allows us to view and challenge any negative thoughts. SFBT allows us to goal set. Person centered focuses on your ability to grow!
