Although I am recently clinically licensed (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC), I am not new to the mental health field. Over my nearly decade of fulfilling work, I have enjoyed 5 years in therapeutic school settings with youth ages 5-years-old to 19-years-old, navigating crises through a therapeutic and trauma-informed lens as an Employee Assistant Program (EAP) counselor and through certifications in both Crisis Prevention Intervention and Therapeutic Crisis Prevention and Intervention models, supporting parents and families through a guardian support group for children in the therapeutic school setting as a facilitator for the past 3 years, and obtaining a Level 1 Certification in Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) through the Yale Child Study Center. As a result of my success in treating students and families who are impacted by school avoidance/refusal, I was selected to present to parents about concrete strategies, and was consulted in the development of a school avoidance/school refusal school response protocol. Additionally, an anti-racism intervention I co-created for students on the spectrum and their families is now used as a resource and response to school incidents involving racism. My training began with a Bachelor’s in Social Worker from the University of Cincinnati, and ended with a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology.
I have worked with young people and their families with a wide range of emotional, behavioral, academic, and social needs. I bring a multiculturally-aware, strengths-based approach to therapy and common work with individuals on the neurodivergence spectrum, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, diagnoses of Attention Hyperactivity Deficit Disorder, anxiety, depression, Pathological Demand Avoidance, learning disabilities, gender and sexuality, and parent support and coaching.

ADHD is my superpower and I enjoy helping clients make sense of the chaotic mind. If you are constantly overthinking before bed or feeling paralyzed by your daily to-do list, we will work together to break that cycle. I understand past experiences, often unidentified traumas, shape how we show up in present interactions. Life transitions can be difficult, and it is my pleasure to assist you whether you are changing careers, expanding or downsizing in family roles, or just trying to decide what's next. Life stressors are inevitable, but they don't have to be anxiety-filled experiences.

Sometimes the hardest part of a life transition is figuring out who you are in the middle of it. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationships, family changes, and the major transitions that can reshape how you see yourself. As a bilingual and bicultural therapist, I also understand how culture, family, and identity can shape our experiences. Whether you're raising children, entering midlife, becoming an empty nester, or simply feeling ready for something to change, you don't have to navigate it alone.
En Español:
A veces, la parte más difícil de una transición en la vida es descubrir quién eres en medio de ella. Trabajo con adultos que están atravesando experiencias de trauma, ansiedad, depresión, dificultades en sus relaciones, cambios familiares y grandes transiciones de vida que pueden transformar la manera en que se ven a sí mismos.
Como terapeuta bilingüe y bicultural, también comprendo cómo la cultura, la familia y la identidad pueden influir en nuestras experiencias. Ya sea que estés criando hijos, entrando en una nueva etapa de la vida, adaptándote a que tus hijos se hayan ido de casa o simplemente sintiendo que ha llegado el momento de hacer un cambio, no tienes que atravesar este proceso a solas.

I specialize in working with teens and adults navigating things like school refusal, emotional dysregulation, anger, self harm, anxiety, depression, OCD, life transitions, and personal growth. I work with teens ages 13 to 18 as well as adults, and my goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and not alone in what you are going through.
Outside of my work, I enjoy being creative, staying organized, and spending time with my husband, our dog, and our two daughters, which helps me stay grounded and connected in my own life as well.
