My goal as a counselor is to provide a space that feels calm, comfortable, and supportive. In a world that feels like it is running one hundred miles a minute, this therapeutic space is one where you can take a deep breath, slow down, and explore any disconnect you have been feeling from yourself or the world around you. Whether you are working through ongoing challenges, fears, grief, or daily struggles, I am here to support and encourage you. I truly believe that each individual has their own unique story to tell and I consider it the highest honor to listen and walk alongside you. Taking the first step and reaching out for support is incredibly brave. If you are questioning taking this step, yet feel uncertain, please do not hesitate to reach out. I am more than willing to answer any questions you might have about what the process of therapy might look like and find a fit that works for you!

Treatment Approach
- Art Therapy Uses creative activities like drawing, painting, or sculpture as a way to express emotions. It is especially helpful when words are hard to find.
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) Helps clients heal by working with different ‘parts’ of themselves, like inner critics or wounded children. It fosters harmony within the self.
- Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) Combines mindfulness practices with CBT to prevent depression relapse. It helps people notice thoughts without judgment and respond more calmly.
- Somatic Therapy Helps clients notice how emotions are stored in the body. It uses breath, movement, and awareness for healing trauma and stress.
Approach Description: My treatment approach is a blend of somatic and mindfulness-based practices, while also incorporating some internal family systems(IFS) and art therapy practices. I strive to create approaches and interventions that address the body and mind as a whole, instead of viewing them as separate. Every intervention in the session will be tailored to meet your specific needs and goals, as you are a multifaceted and unique individual. I strongly believe in meeting you where you are at and emphasize collaboration throughout the entire treatment process. Healing looks different for everyone and honoring your individual journey to healing is of the utmost importance to me.
