My Approach

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Therapy needs to fit the person, not the other way around.

My goal is to provide an open, nonjudgmental place to talk about life’s struggles with both compassion and a sense of humor. Therapy should be a safe space to explore these struggles and help you feel less alone.

My approach is mindful, eclectic, and tailored to meet your unique needs, with the ultimate goal of helping you discover inner strength and renewed hope for the future.

Building a collaborative relationship is at the heart of my approach to therapy. Together, we will work on developing confidence and learning the skills to help you navigate life’s ups and downs. You are the expert of your own experience, and it is my honor to guide you in achieving your goals.

We all need a little extra help sometimes, and I'm here for that! Deciding to start therapy can be a difficult choice, so it's my goal to make this process as easy as possible to get you started. I want to help in any way I can. Let's work towards healing together!

Services and Specialties

Relationship Issues

Everyone has struggled at some point with managing the difficulties of interpersonal relationships, whether they are romantic, professional, or platonic. Individual therapy can help you explore how your past experiences and personal patterns affect your relationships. You can address unresolved issues, improve communication skills, establish healthy boundaries, navigate conflicts, and focus on strengths to make the best decisions for your life.

Life Transitions

Sometimes we can handle change and transitions by ourselves and sometimes we need a little extra support. Change gives us an opportunity for growth. With each new challenge, we develop new skills and increase awareness of ourselves. Therapy can help you improve decision-making skills, build emotional resiliency, increase awareness, and learn stress management skills.

Teens

Therapy offers an opportunity for teens to express themselves openly as they learn to make sense of their thoughts and feelings. They can learn coping skills to manage difficult emotions, address unhealthy habits, increase motivation, improve academic performance, build confidence, and manage conflicts with family and peers. I also can facilitate family sessions to increase meaningful dialogue within the family system. 

Young Adults / Students

Young adulthood is a time of major transitions, growth, and challenges. College and early adulthood can be a time of overwhelming emotions, shifting relationships, identity struggles, and school and work pressures. Therapy offers a space to pause, reflect, and process. Together, we can explore new experiences, explore your identity, process emotions, and build tools to navigate stress in healthier ways.

Anxiety

Starting therapy can feel like an anxious situation in itself. It can feel impossible to ignore that little voice in your head that tells you to worry. The first step is identifying triggers, exploring what happens in the moment, and how it feels. Anxiety treatment will explore your feelings, delve into unhelpful thought patterns, and introduce coping mechanisms to reduce excessive worry, tension, and stress.

Depression

Therapy can be essential to in dealing with the underlying difficulties at home, work, or in relationships due to the challenges that can come with managing depression. Clients can gain coping skills to manage what is happening now while unpacking negative beliefs about yourself, others, or the world that may be contributing to your outlook on life. If you’re thinking about suicide or hurting yourself, please call 911 or go to your local emergency room immediately.

About Me

I completed my MA in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University in Malibu and my BA in Psychology with a Business Foundations Certificate from the University of Texas in Austin.

My professional experience spans across private practice work and community-based therapy. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have been working as a therapist since 2019.

When I am not with clients, I like to spend quality time with friends and family, seek new experiences through travel, attend concerts, and go to the movies as often as possible.
