Great to meet you!

I love mental health, I love helping humans whether you need a listening ear, therapy, or medication. My clients vary from working parents, struggling students, divorced parents navigating co parenting, or someone recovering from loss and grief. I take pride in providing quality sound care in a non judgmental safe space.

My approach to therapy

I believe quality mental health care starts with listening. I take the time to understand each client as a whole person—not just a diagnosis or list of symptoms. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. Together, we identify what is getting in the way of feeling and functioning your best and develop a treatment plan that feels realistic for your life. When medication is appropriate, I provide education and include you in the decision-making process so you understand your options and feel comfortable with your care.

What you can expect from me

You can expect a safe, welcoming space where you can be yourself and speak openly without fear of judgment. I am a real person who understands that life can be complicated, and my goal is for you to feel heard rather than rushed. During our first session, we will discuss what brought you to treatment, your symptoms, life experiences, current stressors, and what you would like to improve. We will then work together to develop a treatment plan that may include medication, therapy recommendations, lifestyle changes, or a combination of approaches. I want you to leave your first appointment feeling heard, informed, and hopeful about the next steps.
