I am a licensed professional counselor approaching therapy with compassion, empathy, and a solution-oriented mindset. My specialized interest and focus is treatment of issues related to body image and disordered eating, self-esteem, OCD, identity development, life transitions, and family of origin. I have experience within community mental health agencies, traditional outpatient settings, integrated healthcare and on college campuses. I believe that by providing a safe and
non-judgmental space, I support clients in gaining the courage to build confidence in themselves and their abilities to succeed. My primary interventions include CBT, ERP, Client-Centered Therapy, Solution Oriented Approaches, Motivational Interviewing and Mindfulness Based Grounding. I have advanced training in addressing childhood trauma, doing family systems work, targeting disordered eating behaviors, preparing for the transition to college, working with LGBTQIA+ individuals and processing PTSD. After attending the University of Arizona for a Bachelor's degree in Psychology with a second major in Family Studies and Human Development, I received my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northern Arizona University.

Hello! I am an experienced therapist that works with children, adolescents/teenagers and adults. I treat depression, anxiety, complex trauma, strained relationships (child-parent and partners), PTSD, substance use disorder, and low self-esteem. My approach depends on what is in your best interest and comfort level. I follow solution-focused and evidence-based practices using CBT, DBT, and EMDR. I embrace the uniqueness of each person I encounter and hold myself to a high level of ethics with respect for those I serve in their environment and culture. Life is complicated, and when you hit a roadblock in your personal growth, or when past traumas hold you back, I can help you address those barriers so you can heal and be the best you. I can assist in replacing maladaptive behaviors with positive behaviors. I earned my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Arizona State University. I approach people with a smile and warmth.
