I’m a licensed therapist and professor passionate about helping people live more meaningful, authentic lives. Whether you're navigating a life transition, struggling with anxiety or OCD, or exploring questions around identity, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and respect.

My approach to therapy is grounded in a humanistic, nonjudgmental relationship. I strive to respect, affirm, and honor people from all backgrounds and identities. I also enjoy getting to know my clients as whole people, not just their struggles. Yes, I want to hear about your passions, hobbies, good and bad vacations, and weird interactions with your barista. And we’ll also get down to business as I aim to balance a pace of challenge and support through a holistic, strength-based lens.

On a more clinical note, I use exposure and response prevention for folks who struggle with OCD. For other mental health concerns, I draw from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help clients take meaningful action in their lives. ACT supports people in developing a different relationship with their mental health concerns, one rooted in compassion and acceptance, so that they can live in alignment with their values.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, discovering new music, perfecting my morning coffee ritual, exploring new restaurants and breweries, listening to This American Life, keeping up with best picture nominees, and working on becoming a better guitar player.
