I provide psychotherapy to adults, couple, and children. I specialize in working with parents navigating the challenges of parenting, pregnancy, postpartum, and transitions such as becoming a stay-at-home parent, returning back to work, or shifting professional aspirations that occur during the different phases of parenthood. I am especially passionate about supporting mothers as they adjust to the personal and emotional transformations that come with motherhood, helping them find confidence and balance in this new stage of life. I also work with individuals addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, life transitions, and emotion dysregulation.
I strive to create a safe space for exploration and growth, fostering an environment that empowers individuals to understand their thoughts, feelings, and unconscious motivations. With children, I use play therapy techniques to foster self-awareness, strengthen emotion regulation, and build meaningful connections with those around them. I also work with adolescents and teens with histories of trauma, anxiety, and emotion dysregulation.
I have a variety of experience providing psychotherapy to individuals in psychoanalytic institute, foster care, elementary school, college counseling, inpatient psychiatric, and outpatient hospital settings. I completed my predoctoral internship training at the National Institute for the Psychotherapies.
