Every child has a unique voice, every teen is finding their place in this world, and every adult has a story to tell. As a Mental Health Counselor, I am passionate about building meaningful relationships with each person who walks through my door by showing up with authenticity, empathy, and understanding. I earned my Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Mercy University.

For the past eight years, I have worked with children in educational settings. This experience has deepened my understanding of child development, emotional growth, and the importance of feeling heard while strengthening my knowledge of behavioral interventions and navigating challenging behaviors. Combined with my clinical training through Mercy University, it has shaped my approach to create an environment where children feel safe expressing themselves. Through Narrative Therapy and play, I provide a space for children to communicate in ways that feel natural, make sense of their experiences, and build tools for emotional regulation. I provide family/parent support to help incorporate learned skills at home.

Life can be exhausting. Anxiety and depression can creep up on you, family dynamics can weigh heavily on your mind, and the challenges of everyday life can feel overwhelming. During these moments, it can be difficult to see a path forward. Drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, I work with clients to better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and to build skills to navigate life's ups and downs. I believe that every person possesses inner strength and resilience, and therapy can create space to uncover those strengths, even during life's most difficult moments.

My goal is to create a space where children, teens, and adults feel safe being themselves, exploring life's challenges at their own pace, and discovering the strengths within themselves.
