Hi. I am a mental health therapist. 

Are you a parent, caregiver, or guardian, looking for a therapist for your teen? Maybe even a therapist for yourself? Whether death of a loved one, relationship issues, severe anxiety, the loss of a job, or life transitions; navigating these stressors can be difficult. You remember being a teenager and experiencing the same social expectations; maybe this is something you're still untangling. If you're struggling to heal, now might be the time to work with a therapist who can support your emotional wellbeing.

​

With 8+ years of child & adolescents and adult mental health counseling experience, I specialize in supporting teens and adults to explore the relationship of acceptance and change - by recognizing thought patterns and using helpful behavior responses. We will work together to take action in changing what no longer serves as beneficial to your life.​

​

Let's work together to develop a plan that will ultimately support you in reaching your goals and the betterment of self-priority. Emotional wellbeing is just as important as breathing. Booking a session today is where cognitive wellness begins.
