Intern Therapists

I began working towards my doctorate in clinical psychology at the University of Indianapolis in 2020 and have experience working in community mental health, crisis intervention, and college counseling. I am currently providing both therapy and assessment services in a private practice setting.

I have worked with adult clients from multicultural backgrounds presenting with chronic illness, trauma, and various mood disorders, as well as young adults experiencing difficulty with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life stressors, and adjustment. I believe in early intervention but also emphasize the value of seeking support later in life when access to resources may become more readily available, seem necessary for a current concern, or an individual feels open to processing earlier experiences.

I utilize a client-centered approach as I aim to meet you where you’re at and tailor your therapeutic experience toward overall wellbeing based on your values, strengths, and end goals. I incorporate mindfulness-based approaches when necessary to build your confidence in your ability to cope with day-to-day stressors. Overall, my goal is to work together to encourage mutual understanding of your view of yourself, your relationships, and the world around you.

I am a fourth-year doctoral student in Clinical Psychology at the University of Indianapolis. As part of my doctoral training, I practice under the supervision of a licensed clinical psychologist. I have experience working in private practice settings and community mental health, where I have provided therapy and assessment services to children, adolescents, and adults. I have a particular interest in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, mood disorders, stress, identity, and interpersonal concerns. 

I primarily take a client-centered approach, valuing each person’s capacity for growth and self-awareness. While this forms the foundation of my work, I also incorporate other techniques from evidence-based approaches to best meet each client’s unique needs. In psychological assessment, I strive to gain a full understanding of each person’s story by integrating their personal narrative with objective, evidence-based measures. My aim in therapy and assessment is to create a supportive and collaborative environment where clients feel understood and are encouraged to actively engage in their growth.
