Congratulations on the start of your therapy journey! College can be a particularly enjoyable time of life but can also be uniquely challenging- This time is all about figuring out who you are and who you want to be. Facing the challenges of choosing your major, figuring out what direction you want to head in, all while balancing relationships with your friends, families, and partners.

Dealing with all of life's stressors can be a lot to sort through, and I am here to help. As a therapist, my job is to help you untangle everything in a non-judgmental space and help all parts of you be expressed. I am here to help you find your strengths and help figure out how to deal with what is getting in your way.

I have several years of experience and am particularly interested in working with college-aged students. Please feel free to visit my website and email me with any questions or concerns you may have, and I would be glad to provide a free 15-minute phone consultation to help you decide if you would like to start therapy with me. I wish you all the best in all of your endeavors!
