About me
I am an experienced professional counselor who specializes in working with adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety, mood disorders, eating disorders, and everyday stressors. I work with both individuals and couples, and would love to work with you!
As a therapist, I hold a strong belief in the effectiveness of therapy to empower individuals, cultivate self-awareness, and facilitate meaningful personal growth. My ideal client is someone earnestly seeking support through life's challenges, possibly grappling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or life transitions, especially adolescents and adults. They seek a safe space to explore thoughts and emotions, aiming to empower themselves, build self-awareness, and develop coping strategies. They value evidence-based therapy and are motivated to improve their well-being and quality of life through the therapeutic process.
With diverse experience, I offer empathetic therapy tailored to individual & couple needs, using evidence-based techniques like CBT, DBT, & mindfulness. From identity exploration, anxiety, depression, eating disorders & communication, I provide a supportive environment for positive change, offering both in-person and telehealth services for accessibility.
Feeling overwhelmed or seeking personal growth? I'm here to help. Let's explore your concerns, develop coping strategies, and foster self-awareness for a fulfilling life. Reach out, and let's start this journey together towards self-discovery and transformation. Your mental health matters, and I'm dedicated to supporting you every step of the way.
