I am committed to creating a warm, collaborative, and growth-oriented therapeutic space where individuals feel empowered to better understand themselves and navigate life’s challenges. I am currently a doctoral candidate in Clinical Psychology (Psy.D.) at Adler University. My clinical training spans a range of settings, including outpatient private practice, therapeutic day schools, and inpatient psychiatric hospitals, where I have provided individual therapy to children, adolescents, and adults. Through these experiences, I have developed strong skills in working with diverse clinical presentations across the lifespan. My work is grounded in trauma-informed care and emphasizes culturally responsive, developmentally attuned practice.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and informed by integrative, evidence-based practices. I tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs, incorporating cognitive restructuring, skill-building, and insight-oriented exploration. I approach therapy with warmth, curiosity, and cultural humility, and I am committed to fostering a safe, respectful, and judgment-free environment where clients feel supported in creating meaningful and lasting change. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, and difficulties related to family dynamics and identity development. I have a particular interest in supporting neurodivergent individuals, including those with ADHD and autism, as well as those with complex developmental histories or early life adversity. I am passionate about helping clients build self-understanding, confidence, and more adaptive ways of coping.
