I work collaboratively with clients, from the perspective that you are the expert on yourself and my role is to support your growth. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the vehicle for change, and I foster a trusting and brave space for self-exploration and understanding. I trust that clients possess internal resources to help them navigate challenging experiences, and part of our work together is to further nurture and develop those resources. I practice from interpersonal and feminist orientations to examine relational dynamics and societal systems effects on clients’ identities, current experiences, and world views. I have several years of experience working with college students, and specialized training in working with student-athletes. I enjoy working with older adolescents and young adults, though I have experience working with folks of all ages. My areas of experience and interest include relational concerns, identity exploration, mood disorders, and trauma. You deserve a warm and trusting therapy space with a genuine and non-judgmental therapist, in which you feel seen in your entirety. Therapy can be a space of liberation from systems that stifle creativity, community, and growth. I am honored to work with you on your journey to create the life and world that you want for yourself, and for others.
