What was your path to becoming a mental health provider? Having experienced the challenges associated with health issues and the limited access to care I experienced, I seek to create an equitable, safe space for all searching for support. What should someone know about working with you? I find that humor has its place in a quality therapeutic relationship-I want to hear about your interests, your moments of levity, and things that make you laugh-not just challenges. How do you continue ...

I am particularly well-suited for college students, as I ran a research team with students for more than ten years and won the top mentoring awards at both of the universities where I was a professor. As a former professor, I do have a unique understanding of young adults and their needs. The clients who fit best with me tend to be bright and intuitive and perhaps even “overthinkers” who I often teach to think less, ironically! :) My clients come to me for a number of reasons, but one co...

Many of the students I work with are thoughtful, creative, and driven—but they also feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. Some are dealing with high expectations, self-doubt, or pressure to be perfect. Others feel disconnected from their families or unsure about their identity. I work especially well with students who tend to think and feel deeply, including those who have a strong inner life, creative interests, or complicated relationships with ambition or independence. I often work with wom...
