My approach is rooted in Adlerian psychology and draws on evidence-based practices including Attachment Theory, trauma-responsive care, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to share their stories and move toward meaningful change. I'm also trained in Narrative Exposure Therapy, an evidence-based approach for processing trauma and PTSD.

I've worked extensively with neurodivergent youth, including kids with ADHD and sensory processing differences, along with clients navigating trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and relationship struggles. However you're arriving—on your own or with the people you love—we'll start from there.

You'll pick up on my energy pretty fast—I bring a real sense of fun into the room, and I'm not afraid to get down on the floor and play. I'm just as willing to sit with you in the heaviest, hardest stuff without flinching or rushing you past it. I tend to think in systems: even when I'm working with one person, I'm paying attention to the whole web of relationships around them, because that's usually where change actually takes hold. That's why I'll often work with both an individual and their family members. Some of our sessions might be light and full of laughter; others will ask for slow, deep work. I've lived enough life to hold both, and I'll meet you wherever the day lands.

Outside of work, you'll usually find me at the baseball field cheering on my kids, or spending time with the friends and family who keep me grounded.
