Great to meet you!

Therapy can be intimidating to many people. I don't believe in having a "diagnosis" in order to justify therapy... there are benefits to even the most mentally strong. Much like cars need a tune up, people need to often make mental health a priority! Whether it be a major life change, difficulty in relationships, or feeling like something is missing... I am here to listen, help, and support you through your journey.

A bit about my approach to therapy

With experience in helping small children to the young at heart, I tailor my work to meet each client's individual needs. I look forward to working with you! Thank you for sharing your life with me.

What you can expect from our first session

My approach to therapy is not "one size fits all". Every one is unique and I like to meet you where you are at. I strive to work together on my client's goals with empathy and a safe place of understanding. My hope is that you leave each session feeling more empowered and supported than before it started.
