I work with both individuals and couples.

I feel excited about helping individuals process trauma and learn healthy ways of taking care of themselves. I also enjoy finding the additions to your daily routine that will reduce stress and make you feel more aligned with your passions.

I have experience working with a variety of clients, including individuals experiencing various mood disorders, struggling with body image, grief, OCD, and anxiety, and living with chronic illness.

I feel passionate about working with individuals and couples that are feeling ready to make positive life changes, and want some support in taking those steps.

I identify as an eclectic therapist, in that I draw from various modalities to meet my clients’ unique needs, including CBT, ACT, I-CBT, and ERP.

Staying person-centered is important in my work, as I feel that empathy and authenticity are two of my greatest strengths as a clinician. Being person-centered also means that I aim to work towards the goals that feel most important to each individual and couple.

When working with couples, I feel passionate about using evidence based practices, such at Gottman Method and Prepare/Enrich, to support couples in working towards their relationship goals. I aim to hold a warm space for my clients to share their stories and how these stories impact their relationships.

With my background and training in art therapy, I’m able to offer art making as a creative and hands-on tool to facilitate the therapeutic process. As an artist, I feel that I am able to be especially creative and flexible within the therapeutic environment, and approach problems through a distinct lens.

As a former collegiate athlete, I can relate to the pressure to perform in various areas of life. I also know what it feels like to have difficulty listening to your body, and I have spent time learning to trust myself after many years of being coached and overlooking my body’s needs. I hope to help my clients listen more deeply to the innate wisdom that lives inside all of us.

As a life long learner, I am committed to attending trainings to stay up to date with best practices, as well as to meet my clients’ specific needs. I have especially enjoyed attending trainings through The Center for Mind-Body Medicine, workshops focused on trauma informed interventions and building resilience, as well as a recent panel exploring the evolution of cultural identity of various art therapists in the field. I have completed a training focused on best practices for treating anxiety and OCD.
