Individual Therapy for Adults, College Students, Teens, and Children (5+)

Weathering life’s transitions can often feel lonely and overwhelming. You may be carrying daily stress, managing anxiety or depression, helping your child navigate big emotions, or seeking assistance as you start a new chapter of life… Please know you don’t have to do it alone. 

I partner with motivated adults, college students, teens, and children (ages 5+) who are eager for support and growth. Together, we will uncover and build on your inherent strengths, challenge the patterns holding you back, and build practical tools to help you feel grounded.

My therapeutic approach is a warm, collaborative blend tailored to your specific goals. I draw from evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to reshape unhelpful thought patterns, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) for actionable daily strategies, Strengths-Based & Humanistic Counseling to build resilience, and developmental Play Therapy for younger minds.

I will strive to ensure you feel safe, heard and respected. I’m not here to “fix” you (because you’re not broken). I’m here to walk alongside you, ask the questions that matter, validate your feelings and help you uncover the strengths and strategies you already have within you. If you're ready to begin this journey, I’d be honored to support you. 

Who I Work With

I offer dedicated individual therapy across the lifespan, tailoring my approach to meet you exactly where you are:

• Adults & Parents: I provide a compassionate, empowering space to reduce daily anxiety, process relationships, find sustainable balance, and manage the heavy, unseen emotional labor of caregiving and/or career demands.

• College Students & Young Adults: Together, we tackle academic burnout, imposter syndrome, self-esteem, and the daunting transitions of emerging independence through convenient telehealth options tailored to a busy university schedule.

• Adolescents: I offer an inclusive, affirming, and entirely judgment-free zone to process depression, stress, social shifts, and family dynamics.

• Children (Ages 5+): Whether your child is struggling with emotional regulation, traditional school stressors or thriving in a homeschool environment, I offer a nurturing, creative space. Through games, toys, and art, we practice feelings identification, build executive functioning tools, and learn healthy coping skills in a way that feels natural and engaging to them.
