Long lasting change comes from developing a deeper understanding of ourselves. It can be incredibly challenging to focus on our own emotional life and internal experience. I provide a warm, supportive space to explore and process whatever is on your mind. I have extensive experience engaging in psychotherapy with adults facing a wide range of life experiences, from managing depression, to adapting to major life changes, to facing grief after loss of a loved one.

If you've spent years taking care of everyone else, questioning yourself, struggling with boundaries, or repeating painful relationship patterns, I want you to know: you're not alone, and these patterns make sense once we understand where they came from.

I'm a warm, relational therapist who works alongside you — not just for you. Together, we'll trace the roots of what's keeping you stuck, whether that's family-of-origin patterns, attachment wounds, or the long reach of addiction in your family. My goal is to help you feel more connected to yourself, trust your own voice, and build the kind of relationships — with others and with yourself — that actually feel good.

Therapy is a space where you can feel truly heard, understood, and supported as you work toward meaningful change. I strive to create a warm, safe, and non-judgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself and sharing openly.

My approach is interactive and collaborative, and I understand that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Together, we will work through current life stressors, build on your strengths, and find tools that fit your individual needs. My goal is to help you navigate life’s challenges while feeling more confident, connected, and authentic.
