I'm a licensed mental health counselor with over a decade of experience working across diverse settings from residential programs and correctional facilities to outpatient treatment. I specialize in supporting teenagers and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions, with particular expertise in affirming care for LGBTQIA+ individuals and communities of color. My approach draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), solution-focused work, and interpersonal techniques, always grounded in cultural sensitivity and your strengths. I believe healing happens when you feel genuinely heard and seen by someone who understands your lived experience. I show up authentically in our work together because I know that matters. I'm currently accepting new clients for telehealth sessions and work with most major insurance carriers. If you're ready to take the next step in your healing journey, I'm here to support you.
