The therapy session is a time and space one sets aside to focus on self. To be with self. And to build one’s self. It can be challenging to reflect on patterns, thoughts and emotions, relationships, past events and/or change, but it can also be transformative and rewarding. My role as your therapist is to witness your process and to reflect back with you along the way. The therapeutic relationship is an essential piece of my practice and is built on honesty, trust, empathy, and compassion. In conjunction with traditional psychotherapeutic frameworks (CBT, DBT, Gestalt, Psychodynamic), I use Expressive Arts Therapy (Movement, Drama, Music/Sound, Art) to help foster a creative process. When applied therapeutically, a creative process can help a person heal, open up to change, and may offer new feelings, thoughts, insights, and perspectives As a Dance/Movement Therapist, I specialize in using movement as a tool to identify, explore, and shift the way one relates to self, other, and the world around. I believe engaging in an integrative, body based psychotherapy process is a direct and effective path to embodied growth and transformation.

Life can feel heavy, confusing, or overwhelming, especially when you are dealing with anxiety, low mood, stress, or big life changes. I offer a supportive space to slow down, talk things through, and start feeling more steady again. Care is personalized, collaborative, and grounded in respect for your experience. My work centers on psychiatric care that combines conversation, practical therapy tools, and medication management, so our visits support both how you’re feeling and how you function in everyday life. My practice focuses on psychiatric care that includes both medication management and therapy-informed support, so our work together always addresses treatment and conversation in the same space. For psychotherapy, I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, adjustment challenges, and major life transitions, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to build practical skills, clarity, and confidence. For medication management, I treat a variety of conditions including depression, anxiety, mood changes, trauma, OCD, bipolar disorder, sleep problems, and many other concerns. My approach combines traditional psychiatric treatments with holistic practices such as mindfulness and emotional well-being techniques, fostering balance and resilience while treating the whole person. You don’t have to have everything figured out to get started. This is simply a place to feel heard, understood, and supported as you work toward feeling more like yourself again.

I enjoy working collaboratively with young adults and adolescents navigating identity exploration and development, relationship challenges, and transitions. Many of my clients are LGBTQ+, Autistic, college students, or those who may be wondering about the intersection of queerness and neurodivergence. I strive to meet clients where they are at and work collaboratively to identify needs and goals. My approach to counseling informed by relational and emotionally focused lenses. I work with clients from culturally responsive and identity-affirming perspectives and consider the impact of sociocultural identities on current distress. Clients have appreciated my compassionate and direct approach, and the use of humor as part of a strong relationship. I offer free 15 minute consultations for those who are interested in services. I believe that therapist fit is very important and want to make sure you can connect with a provider that meets your needs.
