Great to meet you!

My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable being themselves. I work collaboratively with youth and adults to navigate challenges, build coping skills, and create meaningful change.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative and tailored to each client’s needs. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify patterns in thoughts and behaviors, and Motivational Interviewing to strengthen motivation and confidence for positive change.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a supportive and goal-focused approach. Together, we will explore challenges, identify patterns, and develop practical tools to help you navigate life more confidently.
