Welcome!

There’s a place for you here.

Offerings

  • Psychotherapy


    Over the years I have learned that therapy can happen anywhere…online, in a park under a tree, the lobby of the courthouse, a homeless shelter, a jail cell, a beautifully decorated office. The key is an authentic therapeutic relationship, built on trust, respect, and a little bit of magic.

    Once we have that foundation, the possibilities are endless! I offer individual, group, and couples sessions (at this time virtual only).

  • Clinical Mentorship

    I remember those 2 years between graduation and earning those 4 letters-LCSW! As someone who was fortunate to have incredible mentors, I KNOW how much of a game changer it is to have someone in your corner.

    The first two years of your career are vital in building a strong foundation-let’s partner in helping you find your place in our exciting field!

    Individual and group options available, either remotely or in person.

  • Coming Soon: Groups

    I am in the process of building a group focusing on trauma recovery. Over the course of my career, I have spent years creating and facilitating groups. The connections I have witnessed are powerful, with people feeling seen, getting new ideas for managing their symptoms, and experiencing healing as they see others working through similar issues.

    This initial group will blend aspects of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, with interactive activities and provided materials.
