I’m Here to Support Your Healing and Growth

I’m glad you’re here.

Starting therapy is a courageous (& often anxiety-provoking!) step toward investing in your growth. Choosing a therapist is important, as this is someone who will support you as you navigate challenges, develop insight, and work toward your goals. I hope the information below helps you get to know me as both a professional and a person.

Clinical Specialties & Theoretical Orientation

I specialize in therapy for college/graduate students and young adults (20s and 30s). The following concerns are my areas of clinical specialty. I’m happy to talk more about your concerns in a consultation phone call with you.

  • Anxiety

  • Perfectionism

  • Life Transitions (e.g., graduation, change in school/job/career, change in relationship(s), grief & loss)

  • Early Professional Career Concerns (e.g., increasing confidence, developing strengths, work/life balance, building professional identity, leadership, burnout)

  • Relationship Concerns (e.g., trust, vulnerability, setting and holding boundaries, identifying relationship needs, navigating conflict)

  • Survivors of Sexual Trauma

  • Social Anxiety

  • Self-Esteem

  • Identity Development (e.g., exploring values, meaning, intersectionality)

My work is guided by an integration of client-centered, multicultural, emotion-focused, self-compassion, psychodynamic, and behavioral (CBT, ACT, DBT) approaches. I adapt my style to the unique needs of each client. My approach is trauma-informed and affirming of your identities. See more about my approach at the page below.

A little more personal about me:

You’ll often find me outside exploring nature or cuddled up on a cozy couch, getting lost in a good book or tv show. The best days usually involve both! I love quality time with cherished people and animals, slowing down, playing games, and eating delicious food. I enjoy traveling & new experiences, and the comforting feeling of returning home. I deeply value community, social justice, and compassion.
