I am a Clinical Professional Counselor Intern providing psychodynamic psychotherapy to adults, couples, and adolescents ages 15 and older throughout Nevada via telehealth. My work is grounded in depth-oriented, relational treatment that focuses on understanding underlying emotional patterns, attachment dynamics, and unconscious processes that shape present-day symptoms and relationships. Psychodynamic psychotherapy supports meaningful, lasting change.

Before entering the mental health field, I held leadership roles in software development, entertainment production, and nonprofit administration. Now based in Las Vegas, NV, this diverse professional background informs my work with clients navigating the complexities of life.

As a therapist, I aim to create a thoughtful, engaged space where emotional experiences can be explored safely and honestly. I work collaboratively, paying close attention to patterns that emerge over time—particularly in relationships, self-image, and emotional regulation. My approach is well suited for individuals and couples working through trauma, personality dynamics, and long-standing relational or emotional difficulties.
