Great to meet you!

I love my work and feel honored to accompany each client on their unique journey. I believe in my clients and in helping them discover the next “right” step for themselves. I bring expertise in infertility, perinatal mental health, relationships, trauma, grief, anxiety, and navigating life’s hardest challenges. My approach is nuanced, collaborative, and tailored to each individual. I’m highly trained, deeply invested, and excited to begin with every new client while continuing to support some for years.

My approach to therapy

I use a combination of approaches rooted in empirical research. I lean heavily on ACT, DBT, emotion-focused couples therapy, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-focused CBT.

What you can expect from me

I call the first session a lay of the land. Together, we’ll explore what brought you to therapy, a little about where you’ve been, and begin establishing rapport. We’ll also start building goals for where we want to go, setting the stage for a collaborative and supportive journey.
