Hey there,
IN MY YEARS AS A THERAPIST, I HAVE FELT HONORED TO BE TRUSTED WITH HELPING OTHERS NAVIGATE DIFFICULT TIMES.
I have loved helping children, teens, and young adults as they deal with a variety of issues, often those stemming from trauma. I also work with people struggling with self-harm and suicidality, anxiety, depression, OCD, life transitions, sexual and gender identity exploration/issues, and selective mutism. I am dedicated to being LGBTQIA+ affirming and anti-racist.
I use a variety of modalities in my therapy work. While I am TF-CBT certified, I also have training in CBT, CPT, DBT skills, ACT, mindfulness-based interventions, ERP, and EMDR. I have training in behavioral interventions for working with selective mutism as well.
When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending time with my partner and our dog. I like to play board games and video games. I’m an avid reader and a documentary nerd. I also have a deep love of film and can frequently be found at the movie theater.
Education: I received my bachelor’s in social work with a double major in psychology from Spring Arbor University and my master’s in social work from the University of Michigan.
