About me
I help children, teens, and adults facing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other mental health challenges develop practical coping tools and move toward lasting change.
My approach to therapy is trauma-informed and draws primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused techniques. I believe that while we cannot always control the challenges life presents, we can develop healthier ways to understand our thoughts, manage emotions, and respond to difficult situations. I work collaboratively with clients to identify goals, build practical coping skills, and strengthen resilience.
I have experience supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, schizophrenia, borderline personality disorder, and suicidal ideation. I also have experience providing crisis intervention and helping individuals navigate particularly difficult or overwhelming periods in their lives.
Whether you are seeking support for ongoing mental health concerns or going through a challenging life transition, my goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered. Therapy is a partnership, and I am committed to working alongside you as you build the tools needed to improve your well-being and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.
