Welcome! I'm So Glad You're Here​​
Taking the step to seek support for yourself, your child, or your family is an act of courage, and I’m truly proud of you for being here. Reaching out isn’t always easy, but you don’t have to walk this path alone.
​
I provide a safe, nurturing, and judgment-free space where girls, teens, and women can feel seen, heard, and understood. This is your space to breathe, heal, and grow at your own pace.
​
✨ Helping girls, teens, and women find peace, confidence, and connection within themselves.
​
My passion for supporting girls and women comes from believing that healing begins the moment we feel truly seen and understood.
My Goal
My goal is to help female children, teens, and adults build confidence, balance, and joy in their everyday lives. Whether you’re navigating big emotions, life changes, or simply trying to reconnect with yourself, I’m here to walk alongside you.
​
Together, we’ll develop healthy coping skills, improve relationships, and create a sense of inner peace and confidence. My hope is for every client to leave sessions feeling grounded, empowered, and capable of handling life’s challenges.
​
✨As a therapist, my greatest joy is witnessing clients grow into the confident, authentic versions of themselves they were always meant to be.
​
My Clinical Focus
I’m passionate about helping young people and women feel safe, respected, and empowered to grow. In therapy, we’ll work together to recognize patterns, challenge self-limiting beliefs, and build tools for emotional regulation and resilience.
​
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client’s unique needs and stage of life. I also provide diagnostic insight, crisis support, and behavior replacement strategies, all grounded in empathy and a commitment to lasting emotional well-being.
​
✨ Therapy with me isn’t just about managing symptoms, it’s about creating lasting change and rediscovering the best version of yourself.
​
My Approach & Specialties
I use a blend of evidence-based practices and creative, individualized techniques (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Interventions, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Play Therapy and Expressive Arts Techniques, Behavioral Interventions and Social Skills Training) to support each client’s goals.
My specialties include:
-
Anxiety or excessive worry

-
Bullying or peer conflict
-
Stress and adjustment difficulties
-
Anger management
-
Attention and focus concerns (including ADHD)
-

​​
✨Each session is designed to help clients build confidence, strengthen self-awareness, and learn practical tools they can use in everyday life.
Supporting Children, Teens & Adults
Everyone deserves to feel supported, valued, and capable of growth. I work closely with children, teens, and women, and when helpful, with parents to strengthen understanding and connection within the family.
✨Healing happens in safe spaces. My goal is to help every client and family feel encouraged, hopeful, and ready to take meaningful steps forward.
