I'm a master’s-level clinician with over twenty years of experience supporting youth, young adults, adults and families through a wide range of emotional, relational, and developmental challenges. My work is rooted in attachment theory, trauma-informed care, and a deep commitment to emotional safety, collaboration, and respect for each person's lived experience.

I specialize in walking alongside individuals navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, identity exploration, PTSD, and autism spectrum differences (ASD). I also support families managing behavioral and relational concerns such as Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), ADHD, and Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED)—helping to build greater understanding, connection, and workable strategies for change.

I draw from evidence-based approaches like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), HOPE Theory and family systems therapy to create practical, hopeful paths forward. Whether we’re exploring emotional regulation, repairing relationships, or navigating big questions around identity, my approach is strengths-based, person-centered, and always guided by compassion.

As a clinician, I strive to hold a steady, affirming space where all clients—especially LGBTQIA+ youth and families—feel seen, respected, and supported. I believe healing happens in connection, not perfection, and my goal is to help people build resilience, develop coping skills, and move toward greater hope, authenticity, and self-understanding.
