I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 13 years of experience in the mental health field. I provide in-person and video-based therapy in Scottsdale Arizona. I enjoy supporting clients who are navigating times of change or transition, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, and relational or family challenges. My approach is holistic and integrative. I prioritize creating a safe, collaborative, and empowering environment while gently helping you grow and change. I understand from personal experience that healing doesn’t happen overnight, and that reaching out for support can sometimes feel overwhelming. These experiences have shaped the empathy, openness, and genuineness I bring to my work with clients. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, supportive, and grounded in evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I also draw from Humanistic and Existential approaches, and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT). You can expect me to be warm, collaborative, and to meet you with authenticity. I value the trust it takes to share your story and strive to create a space where you can explore difficult thoughts, feelings, and experiences at a pace that feels manageable. My hope is that you leave our first session feeling encouraged, seen, and with at least one meaningful, practical thing you can take away.
