Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with advanced doctoral training in systemic and relational therapy. I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges.

My background includes extensive work in family systems and attachment-based approaches, which means I look not only at symptoms, but at the patterns and relational dynamics that shape them. I believe therapy should feel both supportive and purposeful — a place where insight leads to meaningful change.

My approach to therapy

My approach integrates evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Gottman-informed couples work. I help clients better understand their emotional patterns, improve communication, and develop practical tools for lasting change.

I balance warmth with directness — offering compassionate support while also helping clients move toward clear goals. Therapy with me is collaborative, structured, and focused on building resilience and stronger relationships.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll take time to understand what’s bringing you in and what you hope will change. I’ll ask questions about your current concerns, relevant history, and patterns that may be contributing to your distress. Together, we’ll clarify goals and begin identifying practical next steps. My aim is for you to leave the first session feeling understood, supported, and clear about a path forward.
