I'm a mental health counselor specializing in anxiety, ADHD, boundary setting, life transitions, trauma, and generational trauma in young adults and adults, particularly women of color and the LGBTQIA+ community. Together, we create structure, set boundaries, and navigate identity and life changes, including bouts of depression or the weight of past childhood trauma and grief. Each patient brings their own unique life experiences, and it's important to examine those qualities together and collaborate on your goals. I look forward to supporting you on that journey. An integrative approach, drawing on person-centered and cognitive behavioral theories, shapes how I help you become the best version of yourself. Together, we'll build a collaborative process tailored to your goals. I'm passionate about supporting you on your journey toward self-discovery and personal growth, and you can expect a supportive, judgment-free environment along the way. My path to becoming a therapist began with working to reduce mental health stigma, promote community resources, and advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community. This experience deepened my commitment to bringing a compassionate, non-judgmental understanding of the complexities and nuances that often deter people of color from opening up about their struggles and seeking help – an understanding I bring to each session. When I’m not in session, I love to crochet, cook, and bake. I also enjoy traveling and caring for my plants.

Feeling the pressures of everyday life, struggling with ‘imposter syndrome,’ flooded with thoughts that you’re not meeting your own expectations (or someone else’s)? These are just a few of the areas I commonly support clients with. I regularly work with young adults and professionals coping with recent life changes and/or stressors that are impacting their ability to: concentrate, engage with others or maintain meaningful relationships or manage their emotional state. When a client is ready, I assist them in exploring/identifying their strengths, and the skills they can apply to stressors while introducing healthier coping skills to trial. Through this process the goal is for the individual to gain a greater understanding of their stressors and triggers and learn effective skills they can use outside of sessions.

I’m a licensed psychologist and have worked with college-age young adults for many years. I have a youthful energy and I believe in being a good and supportive listener. I utilize evidence-based cognitive-behavioral and acceptance and commitment therapy interventions to help young adults create and apply effective action plans in their life. I’m not interested in helping young adults merely admire their problems, is this usually results in remaining stuck. Instead, I work collaboratively to identify promising interventions to move our life forward towards desired goals. This, I find, is the only way for a person to build genuine confidence.

My practice is designed specifically to support college students in navigating the unique challenges they face during this transitional time in their lives. I also work closely with therapists and healthcare providers to support their well-being and help them develop effective coping strategies. With extensive experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma, including sexual abuse, domestic violence, and childhood trauma, I provide trauma-informed care to help you overcome obstacles and achieve your goals.

Counseling is a process of building relationships, and for the past 30 years, I have been building relationships across a wealth of life-experiences: as a teacher and life-long learner, an administrator in higher education and healthcare, a parent of adult children, a daughter with a complex upbringing. From a collaborative, person-centered, and strengths-based perspective, we will work together to tap into strengths, confront challenges, and build resilience, unpacking and understanding the life experiences that have shaped you to foster emotional growth and well-being.

I aim to create a space where each person feels seen, understood, and safe enough to show up as they are. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, body image struggles, relationship distress, trauma, family dysfunction, and reproductive-related stress. I believe therapy works best when it feels human, honest, and safe enough to be real.

Together, we’ll validate what you’ve been through while noticing patterns that may be keeping you stuck.

I appreciate the time you are taking to choose the best person and process for your specific needs. Being a college student requires a lot of difficult choices, and I know finding a counselor can be hard as well. Here are some thoughts about how I work, but please contact me if you have other questions. My goal as a counselor is to shape our work around the needs, goals, and overall direction you want to take in your life. If you have very focused, concrete issues you want to address, we’ll use a solution-focused approach to create plans and strategies for focused change and growth. If you have more broad, complicated things to address, we talk about a deeper purpose and meaning for your life that can serve as a foundation for more significant changes. No matter what you would like to talk about in counseling, we will capitalize on your strengths as a whole person to create the change you seek.
