About

As a licensed mental health counselor, I work primarily with teens and young adults. I love the opportunity to support young people as they grow and overcome challenges in their lives. I believe that you and your family are doing the best you can with the tools you have, and if you’re searching for a therapist, you likely need more support to thrive. I'm especially skilled at working with youth who have experienced trauma or who struggle with anxiety, depression and/or self-harm. As of December 2024, I have availability for in-person services on Wednesdays or Fridays.

My style has been described as warm, genuine and collaborative. My clinical background is grounded in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and my style is a blend of DBT and person-centered humanistic therapy. Depending on what you need, I might suggest skills or just listen and ask questions.

Research shows that therapy — regardless of what style is used — is most effective when clients feel they have a trusting, safe relationship with their therapist. I offer free 15- to 20-minute consultations to see if I would be a good fit for you.
