How I Work With Students

I approach therapy as a collaboration, where we work together to create a safe place for you to explore concerns and gain skills for coping more effectively with life's challenges. I take an integrative approach to wellness, and aim to help students balance the educational, emotional, social, and physical aspects of their lives.
 
I work with all students and have specialty interest in relationship and communication skills building, stress management, integrative approaches to wellness, couples therapy, professional identity development, group therapy, LGBTQ issues, intersection of spirituality and psychology, Gestalt therapy, training and supervision.
