About

I have been been working with adolescents, adults, and families for over 12 years in a variety of settings including wilderness therapy, community mental health, university, substance abuse treatment, in-patient treatment, and private practice. I hold an undergraduate degree in Psychology from the University of Massachusetts and a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from Appalachian State University with a concentration in Body-Centered Therapy.

As a therapist, I work from a client-centered, systemic perspective. Systemic being that no problem or person exists in isolation. By addressing the entire system, whether individual, couple, or family, longer-term changes are achieved. I pull from a diverse background of skills including DBT, mindfulness, family systems theory, positive psychology, mindfulness, and somatic experiencing. My passion in this works comes from a genuine love of connecting and creating authentic relationships with my clients, which forms the foundation for change and healing.

I look forward to working with you!
