I enjoy working with clients who are interested in learning the "why" of what we do what we do and helping them get unstuck from negative thoughts, emotions, and underlying beliefs. I am passionate about helping clients better understand themselves, make connections between current patterns and past experiences, and feel empowered to make changes that best support your goals. I specialize in older adolescents and young adults who are living with difficulties related to anxiety, depression, self-esteem, perfectionism, relationships, substance use, and disordered eating. I draw primarily from psychodynamic, somatic, schema, IFS, and CBT approaches. My work is insight-oriented and utilizes the foundation of the therapeutic relationship to provide safety and meet you where you are. I enjoy challenging clients in a way that feels curious and exploratory to better learn about your patterns and make changes as needed. Making the first steps to begin therapy can feel overwhelming and vulnerable. I am honored to be part of your mental health journey and would love the opportunity to get to know you! I strive to make therapy a safe and supportive place for you and recognize the importance of a good client-therapist fit. Reach out to schedule a no-commitment intro call.
