Therapy style
I have a passion for providing effective, evidence-based care which will allow you to build resilience and learn not only about yourself but also take away tangible skills you can continue to utilize after services have come to an end. I pride myself on creating a comfortable and safe environment for my clients to open up and process emotions. Since becoming a mother, I have focused on supporting mothers through the transition into motherhood as well as navigating the ups and downs that come with reparenting ourselves while raising children. I will meet you where you are and walk alongside you to create and meet your goals.

My time outside of work is spent with my husband, 2 young children, and our dog. I enjoy being outside, reading, practicing yoga, and binging shows on Netflix after the babies are asleep.
