LCSW, 7 years of experience
New to Grow
Hi, I’m Mia. With over seven years of clinical experience, I’m committed to creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel supported and truly heard. I’ve worked with clients of all ages, couples, high-risk populations, and the LGBTQIA community. Together, we’ll explore what’s weighing you down, build on your strengths, and work toward healing, balance, and lasting personal growth.
In our first session, we’ll take things at a comfortable pace. I’ll invite you to share what brought you to therapy and what you’d like to work toward, but there’s no pressure to have everything figured out. Together, we’ll explore your concerns, gather some background information, and begin identifying your goals. I’ll also answer any questions you have about the process, my approach, or what working together looks like. My goal is for you to leave that first session feeling understood, supported, and hopeful about your next steps.

I help clients of all ages navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, and relational challenges. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, mindfulness, play therapy, and strength-based techniques, I guide clients to build skills, draw on their strengths, and achieve meaningful, lasting change. I understand that seeking support can feel overwhelming. I meet you where you are, honoring your experiences and guiding you toward clarity, growth, and balance. Together, we’ll create a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to take meaningful steps forward.
I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a highly effective, evidence-based approach that helps clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. In my practice, I use CBT in a warm, collaborative, and empowering way—never rigid or clinical. My goal is to help you feel supported while also giving you practical tools you can use right away. Over the years, I’ve used CBT to support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma-related symptoms, and difficulties with emotional regulation. Together, we identify unhelpful patterns, build healthier ways of thinking, and practice new coping skills that fit your real-life challenges. I tailor each session to your needs, pace, and comfort level so the process feels natural and achievable. Ultimately, CBT with me is a team effort—we work together to help you gain clarity, create meaningful change, and feel more grounded and in control of your life.
