(she/her)
I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing environment for clients to break free from limiting narratives and step into the fulfilling life they've always envisioned. I embrace bringing a light-hearted demeanor and infusing humor into sessions, as therapy, especially for the first time, can seem intimidating! I am passionate about my practice, which focuses on working primarily with young adults and college students. In addition to being an LMFT, I am pursuing my PsyD in Clinical Psychology.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most powerful tool in the healing process. During our first session, we'll focus on getting to know you and your unique story while working together to establish meaningful treatment goals. I aim for you to leave each session with deeper insights into yourself and a greater sense of lightness and clarity.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I empower clients to tackle life's complexities, identify innovative solutions, and develop the resilience and confidence needed for lasting growth. I am committed to a client-centered, solution-focused approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I work best with Millennial and Gen Z clients who feel anxious, stuck, or uncertain while navigating life transitions. Whether you're exploring your identity, having a major shift in your life, or facing relationship changes, I provide a supportive space to sort through the overwhelm, build clarity, and reconnect with yourself. My approach is collaborative, down-to-earth, and focused on helping you move forward with confidence and authenticity.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
We all have patterns of thinking that have developed over time. Through a collaborative approach, I aim to identify your negative thinking patterns, understand their root, and restructure them into positive, more balanced thoughts.
Humanistic
I help clients become more aware of themselves by creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where they feel accepted and understood. This process encourages greater self-awareness, helping them connect with their authentic selves, clarify their values, and make more intentional choices that align with their true identities.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I help clients become more aware of their strengths and resources by focusing on what’s already working in their lives. Rather than dwelling on problems, I guide clients to identify their goals and envision their preferred future.
