Accepting clients Last Updated Today

I work as a psychologist at CampusCare Counseling, offering quality mental health services to young adults.
As a therapist, I am committed to helping clients feel empowered to grow and make meaningful and value-based changes in their lives by providing a collaborative and therapeutic space. I value cultivating an authentic connection with my clients that emphasizes compassion and empathy. I strive to create a safe space for vulnerability, curiosity, and self-exploration while also incorporating skill-based work informed by acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectic behavior therapy (DBT).
