Great to meet you!

Feeling overwhelmed? Stuck? Worthless? Frustrated about why you are “the way you are?” I have helped hundreds of high-achieving people find hope, understanding and reengage in their lives by blending cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR. After struggling with my own depression and anxiety, I have dedicated my practice to helping others find their way out of the fog.

My approach to therapy

I am a firm believer in "meeting a client where they're at." This means, I am working for you and not against you. My goal is to create rapport, trust and comfort that evokes an environment where you can be vulnerable and heal. I will not sit silently and nod my head while you share. I believe in being interactive and creating a sense of belonging and understanding. There is no trauma too intense or shame too heavy. Remember, the Great Megan Thee Stallion once said, "Bad B's have bad days too!"

What you can expect from me

Starting therapy can feel daunting, but it doesn't have to be. In our first session, you can expect a welcoming, low-pressure environment filled with understanding, practical insights, and a healthy dose of humor. We'll go at your pace, map out what brought you in, and set the stage for meaningful healing together. I am genuinely excited to join you on your journey.
