Introduction

Nice to meet you! I work with adolescents and young adults to overcome obstacles. Whether you’re a teenager, in your 20s, or in your 30s, adulting — and sorting through the mental health issues it uncovers — often necessitates support. I use a combination of CBT, DBT, and EMDR based on what best suits your needs in a given session.
