Great to meet you!

If you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges, you're not alone, and you don't have to navigate them on your own. I provide a warm, collaborative space where we can explore the patterns, experiences, and emotions that may be keeping you feeling stuck while building practical skills for lasting change. I believe therapy is most effective when it honors your unique strengths, values, and goals, and I strive to create an environment where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we'll develop greater insight into your thoughts, emotions, and relationships so you can respond with more confidence, flexibility, and self-compassion.

My approach to therapy

Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients find relief from current challenges while creating meaningful, long-term growth. Together, we'll build practical skills to navigate difficult thoughts and emotions with greater flexibility and self-compassion. My goal is to help you move toward a life that feels more aligned with your values, even when challenges arise.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, I hope to building a foundation by learning about what brings you to therapy, identify goals, communicate safety, and provide direction for future collaboration.
