Clients should know that I value authenticity, connection, and collaboration in the therapeutic relationship. I aim to create a warm and welcoming environment where clients can openly explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without fear of judgment. I believe therapy is not about having all the answers, but about working together to better understand challenges, build on strengths, and move toward growth and healing.

I have experience supporting people with depression, anxiety, OCD, and trauma.

I provide a thoughtful, intentional space for clients to explore, heal, and grow. My approach blends evidence-based practices with a deep respect for each client’s story, helping them move toward clarity, emotional balance, and a more aligned way of living.

My work centers on helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem challenges, and relationship concerns. I take a collaborative, client-centered approach, integrating modalities like CBT, DBT skills, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to support meaningful, lasting change. I strive to create a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to explore all parts of themselves, including identity, relationships, and personal growth. I work best with clients who are open to reflection and committed to doing the work both in and outside of session.

Your therapy should be as unique as you are. I’m here to provide a safe, collaborative space where you can process your experiences and story at your own pace and be in the driver's seat. We'll collaborate to find a mix of tools that make sense for your life, pulling from various evidence-based methods (without leaving you in the dark). Mental health is a vital part of overall wellness, and I'm passionate about helping you get the support you deserve. We'll explore your brain's air traffic control system, and figure out how it best manages and sorts information.

I find it incredibly rewarding to witness individuals overcome obstacles, develop new coping strategies, and work toward self-actualization and enhanced self-worth. I consider it a privilege to be a part someone's journey and lived experience.
