Clinical Supervisor

One of the most difficult things in life is to step into the unknown, it is a journey that requires vulnerability and resilience. You may be faced with a major life change or attempting to cope with everyday stressors, no matter what your unknown may be, the therapy process can be a transformative tool to facilitate growth. As a therapist, I am here to support you on your journey. 


It is my mission to cultivate a safe, open space for us to work towards your goals together. I truly believe therapy is an empowering space that enhances mind-body-spirit wellness, leading to a more fulfilling life. 


My clinical experience has focused on supporting clients facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief/loss, perinatal mental health, ADHD, behavioral challenges and relational concerns. Other areas of interest in my practice include OCD, phobias, identity development, and life transitions. I am passionate about working with people from all walks of life, including children, adolescents, and adults, all within the family system. In a typical session with me, you can expect a collaborative environment, infused with humor, warmth, and authenticity.
