Great to meet you!

I am a licensed mental health clinician and the founder of Destined Horizons Mental Health Practice. I work with adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship challenges, and emotional burnout. My background includes working across diverse clinical settings, which allows me to support clients with a wide range of emotional and relational concerns through telehealth.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and evidence-based. I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, mindfulness-based strategies, and relational therapy. Treatment is personalized to each client, with a focus on building insight, emotional regulation, and practical coping skills.

What you can expect from me

The first session is focused on understanding what brings you to therapy and what you hope to work on. We will discuss your concerns, goals, and what support might look like moving forward. Clients often leave the first session feeling heard, supported, and clearer about next steps.
