Are you feeling stuck, uncertain, or alone in your struggle? Your unique experiences and challenges are all valid! Perhaps you haven’t had the time or space to deeply explore your thoughts, feelings, and sources of stress. Considering counseling is a big step toward gaining a deeper understanding of yourself and an empowered approach to effectively meeting and navigating life’s challenges.

I bring a person-centered approach and a trauma-informed lens to counseling, honoring your unique strengths and experiences.
My areas of specialization include anxiety, eating disorders, relational work, and trauma. Using CBT, ACT, and DBT techniques, blended with attachment theory, I will assist you in exploring meaning, enhancing existing strengths, and developing effective coping strategies that empower you to flourish.
