About MeI am a registered associate marriage and family therapist who has a passion for helping others. With a Bachelor's and Master's of Science in Counseling, Psychology, I emphasize the use of evidenced-based approaches to therapy. I have thoroughly enjoyed my combined eight years experience working with children, adolescents, couples, families and adults in the teaching and mental health fields. My approach to therapy begins with a deep compassion toward each person’s unique struggle and a genuine belief that each person has the ability to accomplish their goals.

Nobody’s life is perfect and we are all on separate roads with different obstacles through this journey. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or are having difficulty adjusting to life events, I strive to create a non-judgmental environment where you can feel safe, comfortable and free to express yourself in an honest way. I believe this is a very important element in our partnership. I make it my aim to work as a team with you to reach the goals you choose to set for yourself. I provide support and insight so that my clients can gain a better understanding of themselves and the helpful tools needed to cope with life’s challenges. I have a great appreciation for the intimate relationship between the body and mind. Often my approach will encourage an understanding of mindfulness techniques, basic brain functioning and the way our bodies can physically respond. I help my clients identify their unique strengths and build upon them, allowing the opportunity to blossom into the best version of themselves. Life is a collection of experiences and we all have the ability to create positive ones!
