Great to meet you!

I am a licensed psychotherapist with a PhD in psychology who is passionate about helping individuals make positive changes in their lives. My approach integrates insight-oriented work, humanistic values, and relational understanding to help you move beyond surface-level coping and into genuine self-awareness, emotional strength, and long-term growth.

My approach to therapy

My approach is direct, compassionate, and rooted in real insight. I believe in naming things clearly, exploring what needs accepting, and identifying what needs to change so you can stop repeating the same cycles. You won’t be expected to fit into a box or perform a version of yourself that feels safe or familiar. You can show up exactly as you are and we’ll work from there.

What you can expect from me

We begin by identifying what brings you to therapy at this time and how I can best assist you. Once we do this, we can start learning about and naming the patterns, emotions, and challenges that need attention—honestly and without judgment.
