LPC, 4 years of experience
I help women and young adults navigate life’s transitions, heal from past experiences, and reconnect with their inner strength. My approach is warm, affirming, and collaborative, blending evidence-based techniques with deep compassion. Outside of my practice, I find joy in nature, camping, hiking, and spending quality time with my partner and our three beloved hounds. I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey to well-being.
In our first session, we'll start by reviewing some initial paperwork to ensure everything is in order. We'll then take some time to discuss your personal history and any relevant background information. This helps me understand your unique experiences and needs. Finally, we'll talk about your therapy goals and what you hope to achieve through our work together. This session is designed to create a comfortable and supportive environment where you feel heard and understood.

I specialize in working with women and young adults, focusing on women’s issues, life transitions, identity work, and anxiety. My ideal client is someone seeking a compassionate and supportive space to explore their feelings and experiences. Together, we might work on building self-esteem, managing stress, or finding clarity during challenging times. I am here to help you find balance and confidence in your journey.
CFT is designed to help reduce shame and self-criticism by strengthening your capacity for kindness—both toward yourself and others. It uses mindfulness and compassion practices to build a more supportive inner voice and promote emotional healing.
ACT focuses on building a rich, meaningful life by helping you accept what’s outside of your control and commit to actions that align with your values. It teaches skills to handle difficult thoughts and feelings more flexibly, so they don’t run your life.
CBT is a practical approach that helps you notice unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then learn new ways of thinking and responding. By practicing these skills, you can reduce anxiety, improve mood, and feel more in charge of your choices.
Somatic therapy helps you understand and work with the ways stress and trauma show up in your body. By paying attention to sensations, breath, and movement, you can learn to calm your nervous system, release tension, and feel more grounded and connected.
