About me
A warm and compassionate therapist helping children, teens, and adults feel understood, develop healthy coping skills, and navigate life’s challenges with confidence.
Hi! I’m a therapist who genuinely enjoys getting to know my clients and creating a space where they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I believe therapy is not a one size fits all process, so I tailor my approach to each person’s age, personality, needs, and goals.
I work with children, teens, and adults who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional or behavioral challenges, family changes, relationship difficulties, or stressful life transitions. I especially enjoy working with children and adolescents and using creative, interactive, and age appropriate activities to help them express themselves and learn skills they can use in everyday life.
My goal is to help clients understand their emotions, strengthen their coping skills, build self-confidence, improve relationships, and feel more capable of navigating difficult situations. I strive to make therapy a place where clients can be themselves without fear of judgment.
For parents seeking therapy for their child, I also believe in collaboration and communication. Supporting a child often involves supporting the people around them, and I value working with caregivers when appropriate.
You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We can start wherever you are and work from there.
I offer both in-person and online sessions.
