As a self-proclaimed "brain nerd," I love exploring neurobiology in therapy sessions. I value building a genuine connection with my clients and believe in being authentic. My goal is to empower my clients and provide them with strength, purpose, clarity, and relief after each session.

As a Client-Centered therapist, I prioritize evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Therapy. We'll delve into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, tackling anxiety and incorporating mindfulness techniques if you're open to it. I have a casual, authentic approach and value your feedback as we work together towards your goals.
