About me

It's my goal to provide a space where you feel heard, respected, open to learning more about yourself, and safe to work through your struggles. I've spent over 8 years helping young adults and adults work through grief and loss, anxiety, life transitions, and the everyday stresses of college, relationships, work and life. I offer a strengths-based, nonjudgmental, empowering, and collaborative space to talk about things like persistent or excessive worry, self‑esteem, anger or aggression, stress, and coping skills.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first meeting, I will take great care in creating a safe, comfortable space. We'll discuss what you hope to achieve in therapy and explore the challenges you are working through.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My strengths as a therapist allow for a therapeutic approach guided by empathy, compassion, and patience. My approach helps clients realize their innate strengths, build resilience, and cultivate self-trust and compassion. I meet each person with a tailored approach, honoring each individual's unique journey, and clients often leave sessions with practical tools to use in their daily lives and feeling understood.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My experience makes me well-suited to serve young adults and adults who are navigating their grief, facing the intense and often overwhelming emotions that follow the death of a loved one or other significant person. Clients who work with me often seek a compassionate space where they can feel understood and supported as they process their thoughts, feelings, and the complexities of navigating their grief journey. Additionally, I work with adults 18+ struggling with persistent or excessive worry and anxiety. I offer a practical, evidence-based strategies in a safe, collaborative space to help client's feel empowered to manage their worries and a space to explore personal growth. I aim to create a space where clients can enhance their existing strengths while unlocking inner strengths that have yet to be honored.
