Great to meet you!

Navigating this thing called life can be tricky, especially with the challenges we are currently facing! I am pleased to help you discover what it takes to make you feel whole. I am passionate about helping others, providing therapy services in an empathetic and non-judgmental environment.

My approach to therapy

I enjoy and have experience working with all age groups. I look forward to creating a partnership with you where we address concerns regarding anxiety, depression, substance abuse, grief, trauma, anger, burnout, and executive functioning. I use a variety of treatment modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-informed therapy; I also use the harm reduction model when addressing substance abuse issues and I’m a neurodivergent affirming therapist.

What you can expect from me

Together, we will create realistic goals that will jump start your treatment in an environment where I encourage you to be yourself.

Your journey to a better you begins here!
