About

Currently accepting virtual clients in MD & FL! Whether you're going through a life transition, experiencing something difficult (externally or internally), or want someone you can bounce thoughts, feelings, and ideas off of, I'm here for it. When we take the intentional time to look at how whatever is going on for you is impacting your mental, emotional, physical, and relational health, and how that might be preventing you from reaching your goals, we can not only gain a lot from the therapy process, but also enjoy it. We can work together to talk it through, break down barriers, generate insight, and create positive change. I approach sessions genuinely by being direct and warm-with some humor-to build connections, and work with clients collaboratively. Clinically, I utilize evidence-based therapeutic techniques to support clients in meeting their goals. Therapy together can look like processing daily or life events, developing skills, managing symptoms, or receiving support.
