My goal is to meet each client where they are in their life journey and to utilize my education, knowledge, and experience to assist you in reaching your desired goals. I strive to connect you with appropriate coping skills and tools to defeat negative thoughts, take control of your emotions, and improve your interpersonal relationships with others.

I specialize in a wide range of areas including ADHD, adolescent and teen mental/behavioral health, anger management, anxiety, autism spectrum support, bipolar disorder, children's mental/behavioral health, depression, developmental disabilities, family relationships, gender identity, intimate/romantic relationships, learning disorders, LGBTQIA+ support, life transitions, medical issues/physical health, multicultural/diversity issues, OCD, PTSD, stress, suicidal ideation and/or self-harming, and trauma. Whether you're dealing with a specific issue or just need someone to talk to, I'm here to help.
One of my core strengths is my ability to quickly build rapport with my clients. I believe in the power of a strong therapeutic relationship and work hard to ensure you feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we can work towards overcoming challenges and achieving your personal goals.
If you're ready to take the next step in your journey, I'm here to support you. Let's work together to create a brighter, healthier future.
