Clinical Profile & Philosophy

I have worked in the mental health field since 2012. My experience has included working in a college counseling center, acute psychiatric hospitals, community-based services, and outpatient therapy settings. I believe a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship is the basis for growth. I want to ensure I create a safe space for everyone who enters my office and I am LGBTQ+ affirming. I utilize an integrative approach to therapy including Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe that living in a way that aligns with our values promotes authenticity and stability. I recognize the various systems impacting my clients, including barriers to accessing services. I practice from a person-centered and trauma-informed approach to ensure that client’s needs are met. ​
