(she/her)
I am a licensed therapist with 5 years experience supporting individuals with navigating the day-to-day and life transitions in the midst of experiencing anxiety, depression, and other challenges. I utilize talk therapy and operate from a person-centered approach to help form a trusting relationship where you feel safe and comfortable opening up. I like to consider my approach to therapy eclectic. Each person has different needs and what works for one does not work for all. I like to create be creative with each of my clients and find the treatment modality that will work best for them and their situation. I personally have struggled with my own anxiety and panic attacks since I was a child. This is what led me to want to be a therapist to help others.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Exposure Response Prevention (ERP)
I am certified in ERP therapy and use it to treat OCD, anxiety, social anxiety and panic disorders. ERP is the golden standard for OCD treatment.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I use a person centered approach as the basis of my treatment with all clients. I feel it is important to form a strong trusting relationship with my clients where they feel safe and comfortable opening up. I foster this by sharing some of my own experiences and providing unconditional positive regard and empathy to all clients.
Play Therapy
I have years of experience working with children both in outpatient and school settings. I have found the best way to get kids to open up and understand emotions and thoughts is through play.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT to help with reframing thoughts and changing perspectives on things to reach a healthy mindset.
