she/her
I have experience working with clients in both a community mental health agency and private practice setting. My diverse career settings have given me the chance to work with clients from varying backgrounds and life experiences. As a therapist, I understand that the decision to pursue therapy can be a difficult one. Thus, my goal is to create a warm, comfortable, and non-judgmental environment where clients can feel safe to explore their experiences, emotions, and behavioral patterns.
I prioritize working at a pace that feels comfortable for each individual client as I understand that experiencing vulnerability or revisiting difficult experiences can be overwhelming. While everyone has the tools within themselves to flourish, life experiences can make it challenging to connect with those strengths and abilities. I see my role as a guide, helping clients create more meaningful, satisfying lives, as they envision it.
How I work:
As a therapist, I aim to assess and support client’s needs by drawing from various evidenced-based practices. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, person-centered therapy, and mindfulness–based interventions. My therapeutic style can be described as conversational, warm, and exploratory. I implement authenticity and humor (when appropriate) to foster an emotionally safe, and supportive environment that invites client collaboration, as they explore a range of thoughts and emotions. Whether a client is seeking support for a specific issue or aiming for more broad personal growth, I am here to walk alongside them with empathy, compassion, and a commitment to genuineness.
Who I work with:
I have experience working with clients across all age groups, as they navigate a wide range of mental health and interpersonal challenges including eating disorders, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, and challenging relationships and/or family dynamics. I have a special interest in helping adolescents and young adults as they work through the many transitions and challenges that arise during this pivotal time.
More about me:
I received a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Studio Art from Tulane University. I later obtained my Master’s of Education in Community Mental Health Counseling from Loyola University Chicago. Shortly after I relocated to Washington, DC to continue working within the mental health field. I am passionate about ending stigma related to mental health and increasing the availability of resources designated to improving mental wellness for the public.
