I consider it my honor to work with humans on their journey to self-discovery, healing, and a more peaceful and fulfilling life. I rely on a trauma-informed, relational, systems theory framework, coupled with cognitive-behavioral techniques, to help my clients gain insight, develop self-compassion, and the confidence to tackle their therapeutic work. I aspire to form a professional, safe, and empathic rapport, infused with the overarching value of holding unconditional positive regard, with each and every client I serve. I strive to empower my clients to make decisions and take action steps that will lead to solutions and lasting changes in their life and well-being.

I am experienced in helping children, families, parents and individual adults who have faced depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, separation and divorce, and daily life stressors.
