Hi there! Have you been thinking about starting therapy or suggesting it to a friend? I’m here to say DO IT! Let's change the narrative—seeking therapy is a sign of strength and self-care. It’s not just for tough times; it’s a powerful tool for personal growth and self-discovery. Therapy helps you focus on what truly matters— YOU. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where we can work together to tackle life's challenges. Investing in your mental health is one of the best gifts you can give yourself. You deserve it, and your future self will thank you for it!

I’m passionate about helping young adults tackle the unique challenges of being student-athletes, from managing sport-related stress to balancing academic responsibilities. I also support those navigating life changes, dealing with anxiety and depression, and exploring their identities, including gender identity and sexual orientation.

I'm here to walk with you on your therapy journey. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, or just want to grow personally, I provide a safe and open space to talk about your thoughts and feelings. Together, we can find ways to improve your mental health and help you lead a healthier, more balanced life.
