I approach the therapeutic relationship with authenticity, warmth, humor and non-judgment while meeting clients where they are. My approach is collaborative and curious, placing you as the expert of your own life while offering insight, compassionate support and holding space for vulnerability throughout the healing process. I believe all struggles in life to be valid and worthy of acceptance and empathy and I believe in the human capacity for resiliency. I place strong emphasis on building a trusting and safe client-therapist alliance and I strive to empower my clients while working together toward goals and desired life changes. I have a special interest in the treatment of relationship and attachment work in addition to anxiety, depression, self-esteem, family conflict, life transitions, identity and "coming of age" concerns. I also have experience working with disordered eating and body image concerns and I approach these issues from a Health at Every Size (HAES) lens. I enjoy working with the college-aged and young adult population and work with clients of all genders and cultural backgrounds. My approach to therapy is integrative and I practice from a humanistic lens, drawing from multiple theoretical modalities - mainly relational and psychodynamic. If you feel we may be a good fit, messaging or email is preferred.
