Great to meet you!

Hi! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology. I work primarily with young adults and women navigating anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, life transitions, adulthood, and motherhood. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but it can also be one of the most worthwhile steps you take.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy should be personalized and collaborative. You know yourself and your life best, and my role is to help you understand what you’re experiencing, identify what may be holding you back, and build tools that fit your everyday life. I strive to create a comfortable, judgment-free space where you can be fully yourself.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is an opportunity to get to know each other and talk about what brings you to therapy, the support you’re looking for, and your goals. You don’t need to have everything figured out. My hope is that you leave feeling heard, comfortable, and confident about whether we’re a good fit. From there, we’ll work together to move toward the life you want.
