Great to meet you!

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and finding the right therapist matters. My goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you feel heard, respected, and understood.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative and grounded in evidence based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and person centered care. Together we focus on building insight, strengthening coping skills, and reconnecting with your resilience. My approach is integrated, Person-Centered and trauma-informed grounded in empathy, curiosity, and respect.

What you can expect from me

As a licensed social worker, I use a trauma informed and strengths based approach, recognizing how life experiences, relationships, and systems shape our well being. I work with individuals navigating stress, trauma, life transitions, anxiety, and relationship challenges.
