Great to meet you!

Clients often tell me they appreciate my patience, calm presence, and ability to truly listen. I bring years of experience across crisis intervention, substance use, elder care, children’s behavioral health, and women’s health. I value meeting people where they are and creating a space that feels steady, respectful, and supportive as you work through real-life challenges.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative and practical. Therapy with me is a two-way process where we work together as partners. I draw from task-centered therapy, CBT, and crisis-informed care to help you break challenges into manageable steps, build coping skills, and regain a sense of control and confidence.

What you can expect from me

In your first session, we’ll talk about what’s been weighing on you and what you’d like to change. We’ll identify goals together and begin outlining next steps at a pace that feels comfortable. You can expect a judgment-free conversation focused on understanding, clarity, and realistic support.
