Mental health is not some small feat. I believe that everybody deserves an opportunity to face, combat, and conquer the obstacles laid in front of them. As a therapist, I am passionate about providing a safe, inclusive, and affirming space where I will fight alongside you to help you conquer whatever may be holding you back from your full potential.
My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), and Client-Centered therapy with a Strengths-Based, Multicultural- and Trauma-Informed lens. Through person-centered collaboration, I tailor my approach to what we both believe will help you the most. You are the expert in your life and I am here to guide you in implementing tools and tips to live a more fulfilling life. In therapy, I work with adolescents, teens, and young adults that struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, and self-image. I also specialize in working with LGBTQIA individuals and athletes who struggle with performance anxiety and are seeking assistance with enhancing performance. By using a collaborative approach, my goal in therapy is to provide you with all the tools you need to thrive outside the therapy setting.
I earned my Bachelor of Science at the University of St. Thomas studying Neuroscience and Theology, along with my Master of Counseling Psychology also from the University of St. Thomas. I am currently working towards my Doctorate in Sport and Performance Psychology at the University of Western States. Outside of the office and classroom, I love to cook and bake, travel, spend time with friends and family, and go for hikes with my puppy. I love to challenge myself, try new things, and attempt to become competent in various realms.
Let’s conquer this together!
