While I work with various life struggles, I specialize in identity development, self-image/esteem/value, healthy communication and relationship development, grief/loss, and trauma. I use several evidence-based treatment approaches when appropriate to the presenting concern including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT).
