I utilize an eclectic approach that incorporates different evidence-based therapeutic frameworks. I am passionate about partnering with my clients to help them achieve their personal goals and reach their fullest potential. Additionally, I am perinatally trained through PSI and passionate about supporting parents at any stage of their parenting journey. My approach is warm, compassionate, collaborative, and goal-oriented.
