Theoretical Orientation:

I strive in every way to meet the students right where they are in this moment of their lives. I am committed to helping the student feel comfortable and to listen with empathy so I truly understand their unique needs as we work together to achieve the best outcomes. I utilize different approaches including but not limited to Person Centered Approach, Strength Based, Behaviorism, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy.

Professional Interests:

I am a naturally curious individual, I enjoy problem-solving and educating others on thought distortions and how anxiety can impact our lives. I'm interested in how perception and interpretation have a large influence on our mental health and how important it is to acknowledge and address these areas. I love learning all things about the physical brain and mental health.
