As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I provide compassionate, collaborative, and practical support to children, adults, and families as they navigate life’s challenges. I believe therapy should never feel like a one-size-fits-all experience. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and understood—and where we can identify practical steps toward meaningful change.

I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, relationship concerns, life transitions, stress, and emotional or behavioral challenges. My approach is integrative and tailored to each client’s individual needs, strengths, developmental stage, and goals. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Person-Centered Therapy, while incorporating play and art therapy when developmentally appropriate.

When working with children, I use play, creativity, and age-appropriate interventions to help them express emotions, build coping skills, develop confidence, and process difficult experiences in ways that feel natural and meaningful. With adults and families, I focus on building insight, strengthening relationships, improving communication, and developing practical strategies that support lasting change.

My therapeutic style is warm, down-to-earth, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I will meet you where you are and help you recognize the strengths you already possess. I also believe in being honest and direct when doing so can help you gain clarity and move forward.

You do not have to navigate difficult seasons alone. Therapy can be a place to pause, feel heard, gain a new perspective, and begin creating a life that feels more fulfilling and manageable.
