Biography

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (Psy.D.) with 10 years of experience specializing in anxiety, depression, postpartum, and identity/self-esteem. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and solution-focused. I provide a steady, nonjudgmental space where you don’t have to perform or explain yourself perfectly. We slow things down, leverage evidence-based practices, and build practical strategies for lasting resilience—without you ever needing to shrink your experience.

Frequently asked questions

How often will you communicate with me as a parent?

During the first session I will spend 10-15 min speaking to you to see where you feel your child needs help and to see your perspective. After that, it can be up to you or if you have any further questions or concerns.
