Great to meet you!

I’m a licensed professional counselor with over a decade of experience working with adults, adolescents, and children. I’m passionate about helping clients take control of their lives and pursue the personal goals that matter most to them. My practice is grounded in a collaborative, person-centered approach that respects each individual’s unique journey and strengths.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative and person-centered, meaning you set the agenda and guide the process at a pace you’re comfortable with. I help you to focus on your goals, clarify what’s most important to you, and highlight areas for growth. Together, we’ll create a clear path forward and stay accountable to the changes that you want to see for yourself.

What you can expect from me

In our work together, I strive to create a space where you can express yourself without being judged. I'll help you clarify what’s most important to you, set meaningful personal goals, and develop practical steps to reach them. My hope is that you leave each session feeling supported, understood, and ready to work on making the changes that you want to see in your life.
