(she/her)
I’m a passionate and energetic clinician dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and uncover their strengths. My approach combines evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing with a holistic and mindful perspective. I strive to create a warm, supportive space where clients feel empowered to explore their goals, work through challenges, and foster meaningful personal growth.
In our first session, you can expect a warm and welcoming environment where we’ll focus on getting to know each other. I’ll take time to build rapport by learning about your unique experiences, challenges, and what brought you to therapy. Together, we’ll explore your goals, expectations, and what you hope to gain from our work. This session is about creating a safe, collaborative space to set the foundation for a meaningful and personalized therapeutic journey.
One of my greatest strengths as a provider is my eagerness to learn and grow, both personally and professionally. I am always seeking new education opportunities, staying up-to-date on evidence-based practices and innovative approaches to ensure I provide the best care possible. I’m also resourceful and creative, tailoring each session to meet my clients’ unique needs and goals. My clients often describe me as approachable, compassionate, and committed to fostering a safe, supportive environment for growth.
I work best with individuals who are open to exploring their inner world and seeking personal growth. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or simply striving for balance and self-discovery, I’m here to support you. I especially connect with clients who value a holistic and mindful approach, blending evidence-based techniques with a youthful, compassionate energy to foster meaningful change.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns while developing healthier behaviors. In my practice, I use CBT to address issues like anxiety, depression, and emotional regulation by combining thought reframing, behavioral activation, and mindfulness techniques. It empowers clients with practical tools to create lasting change and achieve their goals.
Eclectic
I use an eclectic approach to therapy, drawing from various modalities like CBT, mindfulness, and psychodynamic techniques to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs. This flexibility allows me to combine evidence-based strategies with a deeper exploration of emotions and patterns, ensuring a holistic and client-centered approach. By integrating different methods, I can adapt to what works best for the individual at any given moment in their journey.
Family Therapy
In family therapy, I focus on improving communication, understanding dynamics, and fostering stronger relationships within the family unit. I use techniques like active listening, conflict resolution, and systemic approaches to help families identify patterns, address challenges, and work toward shared goals. By creating a safe space for all members to express themselves, I help families build healthier, more supportive connections.
Motivational Interviewing
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a collaborative, client-centered approach that helps individuals explore and resolve ambivalence about change. In my practice, I use MI to empower clients by focusing on their strengths, eliciting their own motivations for change, and guiding them toward actionable steps. Through open-ended questions, reflective listening, and affirmations, I support clients in building confidence and commitment to their goals.
Psychoeducation
Psychoeducation involves providing clients with information about their mental health, behaviors, or conditions to help them better understand and manage their challenges. In my practice, I use psychoeducation to normalize experiences, teach coping skills, and empower clients to make informed decisions about their treatment. This approach fosters self-awareness and equips clients with practical tools to support their growth and well-being.
