Life is a beautiful journey, yet it often presents challenges that can be difficult to overcome. My goal as a therapist is to help you navigate the challenges of life to achieve your goals and discover your own version of “beautiful”. 

I am a Marriage and Family Therapy graduate student with a Graduate Certificate in Play Therapy and I’m here to walk alongside you to help you move toward understanding and connection.  I bring over a decade of experience supporting children, adolescents, and families through my work in education and behavioral health. This background has shaped my ability to create safe, inclusive spaces where healing and growth can thrive.

I provide individual therapy, couples and family therapy, as well as assessments and psychoeducation using practical tools and solutions.

When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family - staying active, experiencing the arts, grounding and connecting with nature. I believe that self-care is essential for mental health. My favorite form of self care is a getaway to the beach—where the waves can wash away stress and bring clarity, peace, and renewal.
