We are not meant to carry the entirety of life’s weight alone! I believe that mental health should be very much prioritized to reach true contentment. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for healing and growth. In therapy, we will collaborate on developing the best coping skills for your symptoms and concerns. We will navigate through emotions and work to maintain balance. I aim to provide supportive comfort, as well as challenge, in order to strive for the greatest version of yourself.

I received a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy. With over six years experience in the field, I have utilized a variety of therapeutic approaches to assess and treat individuals struggling with stress management, adjustment, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, low self-esteem, etc.
