Great to meet you!

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I am passionate about helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, and relationships with compassion and care.

My approach empowers clients to move beyond feeling stuck and discover a deeper sense of truth, resilience, and self.

What you can expect from me

When you come to therapy with me, you can expect a warm and welcoming space where you feel safe, supported, and truly heard. My goal is that you leave our first session with a sense of hope and the reassurance that you don’t have to navigate this alone. I use both proven, science-based approaches and nature-inspired practices to help you heal, grow, and reconnect with your authentic self. Along the way, I’ll offer honest, compassionate feedback and simple practices you can take with you, so your healing continues even between sessions.
