I am passionate about working with children, adolescents, young
adults, and parents. Many clients that I serve are seeking help with
anxiety, depression, struggles with eating disorder patterns, poor body
image, social anxiety, low self-esteem, and parenting support. I enjoy
assisting people identify and explore thoughts and feelings in a way
that assist with perspective taking and understanding ways that past
relationships may influence current relationship struggles.

I strive to connect with my clients through my direct, compassionate,
and creative nature. I enjoy assisting others build insight, increase
perspective taking, and experience self-discovery that can lead to long-
term personal growth.
I assist college students through talk and expressive art therapy to help
develop life skills that can help increase empowerment, assertiveness,
and self-care. As with working with adults of all ages, I enjoy
assisting college students explore parts of themselves by
acknowledging how life experiences may influence one’s thoughts,
feelings, and behaviors.
For younger clients, I enjoy using toys, art, and other creative ways in
therapy to connect and help children “work through” feelings and learn
healthy, powerful ways to engage with others in their world. I am
passionate about assisting parents and children learn to identify,
tolerate, and regulate intense emotions that can interfere with parent-
child relationships, school performance, peer relations, and self-
esteem.
Making the decision to start therapy can come with apprehension. I
believe your best judgement guided you to search for the right
therapist. I have a direct and compassionate style of working with
children, adolescents, college students, and adults. I assist clients in
reducing anxiety and depression in order to feel confident, achieve a
healthier sense of self, and live in accordance to their values. I believe
honoring one’s intuition is the key to healing- whether that be through
play therapy, creative art interventions, or talk therapy. I enjoy helping
others explore their identity and to accept various parts of themselves.
Therapy can be such a powerful gift and I strive to assist in being a
catalyst for change in my clients’ lives. Change can be uncomfortable
and, often times, necessary for growth. I believe that finding a therapist
that will assist with supporting you and challenging you can help lead to
healthy outcomes, including positive change and growth.
I specialize in treating eating disorders and issues that occur at the
same time, such as trauma, anxiety and depression. I have treated
eating disorders for about a decade in the following settings: as a
program manager and therapist in an intensive inpatient and outpatient
psychiatric hospital, residential treatment, colleges, community mental
health agencies, group practice, and private practice. I also use play
therapy to assist children work through feelings related to anxiety,
divorce, depression, trauma, eating issues, and behavioral issues.
