Welcome! I’ve been practicing since 2019 and draw from Existential, Psychodynamic, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques, among others, to support and build on your strengths as you navigate the path of psychological and emotional wellbeing.

My approach is personalized and collaborative. I aim to come alongside you and work together through life’s unique challenges. I have hands-on clinical experience in inpatient psychiatric care and hospice grief work, along with advanced training in treating ADHD, OCD, Bipolar Disorder, Depressive Disorder, and Anxiety Disorders. While I have extensive experience working with young adults and older adults, I welcome individuals across the lifespan.

Outside of work, I enjoy reading, hiking and camping, playing with my dog Max, rewatching some of my favorite movies and shows, and listening to podcasts and lectures. A few of my favorites include The Lord of the Rings, Good Will Hunting, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Frasier. I also enjoy books like The Chronicles of Narnia (Lewis), The Epic of Gilgamesh, The Mountain of Silence (Markides), and Love’s Executioner (Yalom).
