Description
I believe therapy is a space for learning how to meet ourselves—at any stage of development—with compassion, curiosity, and openness. My goal is to create a therapeutic space where your strengths are seen, your experiences are heard, and your values guide our work together I draw on an integrative approach that is informed by evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, IFS, and ACT, years of experience working clinically and educationally with young people, and your family’s goals and lived experience.
