She has extensive experience supporting people through acute and chronic depression, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, low self-esteem, eating disorders, self-injurious behaviors, and the many transitions life can bring.

In addition to clinical work, she has served as a career consultant for both small and large organizations, assisting individuals with resume writing and job search skills. Across settings including college counseling centers, outpatient anxiety and phobia clinics, eating disorder groups, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, and private practice, she has worked with a broad range of concerns and populations.

Her therapeutic approach emphasizes support and validation as foundational elements of a collaborative relationship. She draws on evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), behavioral therapies, supportive therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-based interventions to help clients make decisions and move forward.

Known for a warm, nonjudgmental presence, she favors a collaborative team approach, creative problem solving, and an active, proactive style in sessions. She helps clients organize overwhelming thoughts and develop coping strategies that can be used beyond therapy to navigate challenges and improve well-being.
