Whether you’re seeking support for your child, your teen, or yourself, therapy can help when life feels overwhelming. I work with children, teens, and parents navigating anxiety, ADHD, emotional outbursts, family conflict, life transitions, depression, and relationship challenges. Together, we’ll slow things down with curiosity and compassion, helping you understand the patterns shaping difficult moments so you can respond with greater confidence, strengthen communication, and create lasting change beyond the therapy room.

I am a licensed therapist who brings a warm, direct, and collaborative approach to therapy. I believe meaningful change happens when clients feel supported, understood, and empowered, while also being gently challenged in ways that promote growth and insight.

My work is grounded in EMDR, attachment theory, CBT-based skills, and solution-focused interventions. I tailor treatment to each individual and family, integrating these approaches to address both present-day concerns and deeper patterns that may be influencing emotions, relationships, and behavior.

I have extensive experience working with children and families and specialize in supporting parents as they build and strengthen secure attachment with their children.

In addition to parenting support, I work with adults experiencing mood disorders, stress, and overwhelm.

Whether clients are working toward healing, personal growth, or simply seeking a space to slow down and be present with their feelings, I strive to offer a supportive environment where all emotions are welcome.

I truly value the privilege of walking alongside clients as they grow, heal, and strengthen their connections.

Sometimes the hardest part isn't knowing something needs to change—it's carrying the weight of it by yourself. Whether you're living with anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship struggles, or feeling caught between different identities, cultures, or expectations, therapy can be a place to reconnect with yourself. I believe healing begins by understanding your story with curiosity rather than judgment. Together, we'll explore not only what's hurting today, but also the strengths that have helped you survive and the parts of yourself that are ready to grow.
