I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with teens and adults, individually or as families. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, disordered eating/body image issues, conflicts in relationships, low self-esteem, or trauma, I can help you cope with overwhelming emotions and stressors. My therapeutic approach is strengths-based, trauma-informed, and holistic. Together, we will find a way to navigate obstacles so you can feel and live better.
The first session involves getting to know each other, understanding the risks and benefits of therapy, gathering information from your past and what brings you to therapy, and setting goals. I aim to create a welcoming environment, answer all of your questions (while asking many of my own), and give you a sense of what to expect during future sessions.
I bring authenticity, humanity, and an open mind into every session. My approach is person-centered, strengths-based, and holistic. I view therapy as a collaborative journey based on a safe and trusting relationship. Whether you are looking for short-term solutions, coping skills, or long-term support, I will bring empathy, respect, and humility to help achieve your goals. I can also bring creativity, mindfulness, and movement into our sessions if that is helpful for you.
I enjoy working with a diverse range of clients who are brave enough to show up, even if they don't know where to start. I appreciate your willingness to seek help, open up to a therapist, and try new approaches. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach and will work with you to find something or several things that work for you.

Humanistic counseling is a people-centered approach, where I meet you with positive regard and empathy, honor your experiences, listen deeply, and help you realize your full potential. We explore your emotions, values, and beliefs, and take a holistic or whole-person approach to present experiences and actions.
Sometimes it is hard to see your own strengths. Strength-based counseling is a positive, affirming, and collaborative process of uncovering and rediscovering strengths, skills, resources, and resilience. It is a way of building yourself up, feeling empowerment and growing self-esteem by focusing on your strong foundation rather than points of weakness.
I am also a dance/movement therapist who is trained in somatic interventions such as using breathwork, attention to physical sensations, imagery, and mindfulness to calm the body and mind, release tension, and decrease stress and reactivity. Working from the bottom up, we can process tough stuff like physical and emotional pain, grief, trauma, or chronic illness to find feelings of safety, comfort, and ease.
