Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who believes deeply in creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can feel seen, heard, and supported. Through my work with adolescents, young adults, and families, I help clients make meaning of their experiences and reconnect with their strengths. I specialize in anxiety, depression, family dynamics, and life transitions, and I integrate narrative and experiential approaches to promote healing and growth. My goal is to walk alongside you as you rewrite your story in a way that feels authentic and empowering.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in narrative and systemic frameworks that honor the full context of your lived experiences. I focus on helping clients slow down, make meaning of their stories, and strengthen the parts of themselves that may have been overlooked or silenced. In our work together, I integrate evidence based practices while tailoring the process to your unique needs, cultural background, and goals. Above all, I strive to create a safe and affirming space where you can explore, heal, and grow at your own pace.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, clients can expect a warm, relaxed, and judgment-free space where we begin exploring what brings you in and what you hope to change or strengthen. I take time to understand your story, your cultural and relational context, and the goals that feel most meaningful to you. Together, we set a clear direction for your therapeutic journey so you leave feeling grounded, supported, and hopeful about the path ahead.
