Hello and welcome! During a counseling session with me, you can expect a supportive, strength-based, and empathetic environment in which you can grow and heal.

I can assist people with a myriad of needs including emotion regulation, anxiety, depression, grief or loss, school concerns, life transitions, suicidal ideation, traumatic experiences and much more.

In counseling, I use different research-based practices such as those in Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Bibliotherapy, along with play, social stories, and art activities to be able to meet your individual needs and meet you where you currently are in your journey.

Please know that I am committed to helping you in your pursuit of growth and healing. Let's work together to nourish your mental wellness.

• My clients range from the age of pre-K to adulthood.

• I have been a school counselor since 2014 and that experience has given me a deep understanding of how the education system interacts with kids' needs as well as parents' needs.

• I am bilingual and speak Bosnian in addition to English.

• My personal experiences have driven me to want to help people who have been through a traumatic life event.

• If needed, I can help clients through a culturally-sensitive lens due to my own cultural background as well as professionally helping clients who are from different walks of life.

• Finally, I am a National Certified Counselor (NCC).
