I completed my Master’s degree at the University at Albany in 2019. Throughout my training, I've gained experience working in a variety of settings that range from Intensive Outpatient to College counseling. My areas of expertise include: anxiety, depression, and relationship and family dynamics.
At the core of my practice is the belief in an empathic and nonjudgmental therapeutic alliance built on honesty, openness, and a little bit of humor. I strive to help clients build self compassion skills and develop a better understanding of how their thoughts and feelings impact them day to day. I implement a humanistic approach to therapy while adjusting techniques based on each client’s needs. I have been described as engaging and warm.
“I believe therapy is collaborative and the client knows best. Change happens when we have a meaningful connection and can work together to solve the challenges of life.”
