About

I work with adolescents (ages 10+), teens, and adults who are navigating stress, anxiety, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. I have a special interest in helping people manage ADD/ADHD, explore men’s issues, and work through relational struggles. I connect especially well with college students and young adults, creating a space that feels safe, calm, and nonjudgmental. I also believe in honoring each person’s story and values while guiding them to uncover what’s meaningful and empowering for them. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts, manage stress, and set clear, achievable goals. I often work with clients to improve self-esteem and boundaries, using practical tools such as relaxation techniques.
