My belief is that every person needs support to work through life’s most challenging problems, and therapy is just one avenue of support. I have experience working in diverse settings including detention center, community based, outpatient, school, in-home, and residential with a diverse range of clients ages three to late adulthood.
I use a person-centered, strengths-based approach to create a collaborative, non-judgmental and empathetic environment, working toward the ultimate goals of each individual. My goal is to collaborate with individuals to promote healing and develop coping skills and self-management skills.
Each individual I work with is the expert in their life, and I aim to help individuals feel heard, understood, supported, and empowered.

Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?
I decided to become a therapist when I was volunteering with a suicide prevention and crisis hotline in college. As someone that has personally struggled with mental health, I knew that there had to be supports out there and I wanted to be part of the solution. My continued motivation is inspired by how many new things I can learn each day from working with others.
What does a typical session with you tend to look like?
An initial session will have a lot of questions and listening, on my part. I am striving to know you and your goals. My goal is to meet you where you are in your journey and identify how I can support empowering you toward recovery.
How can you provide care remotely?
Working from home provides me the flexibility to meet the individuals I serve where they are, by simply connecting via video chat. In the privacy of my at home office, I can provide my time and attention to fully support individuals on their journey toward recovery.
