Great to meet you!

With over a decade of experience as a licensed therapist, I've worked in varying settings with diverse populations. My specialty areas include anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and relational issues with family, partners, work peers, and friends. I'm also dedicated to serving the LGBTQIA+ community.

As your therapist, I believe you're the expert of your own life. Together, we'll work collaboratively to identify changes you'd like to make and develop a personalized plan to achieve them.

My approach to therapy

Having been in therapy myself, I understand the daunting task of confronting the parts of ourselves that we've long suppressed or hidden away. My approach is built on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can be yourself, without fear of criticism or rejection. By fostering a relationship grounded in trust, open-minded curiosity, and client empowerment, I’ll support you to take an active role in your therapy. Together, we'll explore innovative strategies to achieve your goals.

What you can expect from me

As a compassionate guide, I aim to empower, affirm, and validate my clients throughout our collaborative journey. By incorporating approaches such as CBT, solution-focused, and person-centered methods, I help you unlock your full potential. Together, we'll identify and implement effective interventions and cultivate self-care habits to make meaningful changes a reality.

My goal is to equip you with the tools and confidence to continue making progress long after our sessions conclude.
