Therapist
(She/her/hers)
I believe that human growth thrives in an environment of authenticity, non-judgment, and the willingness to face challenges directly. My passion is creating a space where vulnerability and self-compassion are welcomed, and where clients never feel alone on their healing journey. I guide clients in recognizing their strengths and working toward personal goals using humanistic, psychodynamic, and strengths-based approaches, along with Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques. With experience in various treatment settings, I have worked with individuals of all ages, addressing mood, anxiety, substance use, eating disorders, and social inequality through individual, couples, group, and family counseling.
I value consistently having a little fun in my day to day life. In my free time I enjoy hanging out with my friends and family, traveling, dancing for enjoyment and exercise, capturing moments through photography, and cuddling my little yorkie until she's had enough of me! I love fancy nail designs- nails are a consistent part of my self-care routine. I enjoy creating community with others and getting to know new people.
