While I may not have all the answers, I firmly believe that together, we can uncover the answers that lie within you. Let's embark on this journey of healing, growth, and self-discovery, with a sprinkle of humor to lighten the load along the way.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In your first therapy session with me, expect a warm and welcoming atmosphere where you'll freely express yourself. Together, we'll explore your unique experiences and goals, addressing issues ranging from neurodivergence to relationship dynamics. Drawing from a diverse toolkit of therapeutic approaches like narrative therapy and client-centered therapy, I'll guide you towards self-discovery and resilience. By the end of our session, you'll have a clearer understanding of our approach and a roadmap for your journey of transformation ahead.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a therapist, my strengths lie in my diverse and inclusive approach to therapy. I am dedicated to catering to individuals across various demographics and addressing a wide range of issues with sensitivity and understanding. My specialization in areas such as neurodivergence, attachment, racial stress & trauma, and LGBTQ issues showcases my commitment to providing affirming and effective support to clients from diverse backgrounds. I draw from a rich toolkit of therapeutic approaches, including narrative therapy, logotherapy, and client-centered therapy, allowing me to tailor my methods to suit each client's unique needs and preferences. I excel in creating a supportive and nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients feel empowered to explore their experiences and discover their own paths to healing and growth. My compassionate and empathetic nature, combined with my dedication to collaborative and client-centered care, makes me a valuable ally on my clients' journeys towards self-discovery and transformation.

Couples Counseling

In our sessions, we don't just address individual issues; we work together to heal and improve the dynamics between partners. Through targeted interventions, we aim to break patterns of conflict and foster empathetic listening and loving communication. We believe that strong relationships thrive on open, honest communication, shared goals, and a touch of mystery to keep things exciting. Additionally, we emphasize the importance of healthy intimacy, helping couples cultivate a deeper connection and enhance their emotional and physical bond. By honing in on the unique strengths of each couple, we empower you to overcome challenges and create a fulfilling and lasting relationship. Together, we'll navigate your journey towards a happier, healthier partnership.

Child Parent Psychotherapy

Parents are human too, and during my experience working with teens, it became apparent that they need and deserve just as much validation and support. Being a good parent is not determined by the success of your child, but rather by the grace, opportunities for success you provided them, and your expressions of love. With a decade of experience as a school social worker, I bring a clinical therapeutic lens to my mission of offering support for parents of youth with mental health challenges. This specialized perspective allows me to provide nuanced insights and evidence-based interventions tailored to each family's unique circumstances. By infusing a little humor into our sessions, I aim to empower parents to navigate their child's mental health journey with confidence and resilience. Together, we'll work towards fostering understanding, resilience, and well-being within the family unit.

Person-centered (Rogerian)

Therapy for Teens! For the past decade, I've dedicated my career to supporting adolescents and young adults as a school social worker. Drawing on this wealth of experience, I offer tailored therapeutic services designed to help navigate the complexities of social dynamics, academic pressures, and school expectations. In today's digital age, social media introduces unique and increasing problems around peer conflict, bullying, and self-esteem. My approach is rooted in empathy, understanding, and practical strategies, empowering individuals to overcome these challenges and thrive in all aspects of their lives. Additionally, my experience working with Autism Spectrum Disorders and ADHD equips me with specialized insights to provide comprehensive support for neurodiverse individuals. Together, we'll tackle this ever-evolving landscape with strength and assurance.
