My path as a therapist began with hands-on work supporting children and adolescents, where I first developed a deep appreciation for the importance of structure, consistency, and emotional attunement. As a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), I worked closely with individuals on the autism spectrum, implementing individualized behavioral interventions while also supporting caregivers in understanding and responding to their child’s needs. These early experiences shaped my understanding of neurodivergence, strengthened my ability to build meaningful connections, and reinforced the value of meeting each person where they are with patience, empathy, and practical support.

Through my graduate training in clinical psychology and marriage and family therapy, I have continued to deepen my clinical skills through trauma-informed, relational, and systemic approaches. My work draws from modalities such as DBT, attachment-based therapy, family systems, and object relations, allowing me to support clients in understanding both present challenges and the deeper relational patterns that shape their experiences. When working with children, I incorporate play and art-based interventions to support expression and developmentally appropriate healing, while also integrating caregiver involvement to create lasting, meaningful change.

In my current work, I support children, teens, adults, and families navigating a range of concerns including ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relational challenges, and identity exploration. I am especially passionate about working with neurodivergent individuals and members of the LGBTQ+ community, as well as supporting women through an empowerment-based lens. I help clients build structure in their daily lives, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop practical tools that foster independence, confidence, and self-understanding. My approach is warm, authentic, and collaborative—creating a space that feels both grounding and empowering.

My cultural lens is rooted in humility, curiosity, and respect for each client’s lived experience. While I identify as a cisgender white woman, I bring both personal and professional experience working with diverse communities, including individuals and families navigating cultural differences, interfaith dynamics, and generational expectations. I am committed to ongoing learning and strive to create a space where clients feel safe, seen, and affirmed in all aspects of their identity. I believe therapy is not only a space for healing, but also for growth, self-discovery, and building a life that feels more aligned and authentic.
