Hello

I remember years ago, at my previous job in Corporate Wellness, after completing a yearlong course in Wellness Coaching, I believed I was still at the tip of the iceberg when it came to helping people. I wanted to learn more, develop more, and expand my intellectual and emotional capacity to be able to truly help people navigate the challenges they were facing - no matter how big or small. Shortly after that realization, I applied to a graduate program and have been grateful for my decision ever since. 

​

My experience includes working with adolescents, teens, families and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment, eating disorders, opposition, relationship and behavioral problems. I believe therapy is a collaborative partnership between the client and therapist.

​

I incorporate a variety of therapeutic practices to best meet the individual needs of each client including CBT, mindfulness, somatic work and trauma-informed care. I hold certifications as a Certified Grief Informed Professional (CGP), Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP) and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). ​My background in Kinesiology assists in supporting client's build healthy relationships between themselves, their emotions and their bodies - as much healing can occur through movement and the mind/body connection. I offer walk and talk therapy in addition to virtual and in-office sessions.
