Great to meet you!

You may be successful, dependable, and used to carrying a great deal, yet privately feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in overthinking. I help adults navigate anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, trauma, grief, and major life transitions so they can feel more grounded, communicate more effectively, and move forward with greater clarity.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, practical, and tailored to your goals. I integrate CBT, ACT, EMDR, narrative, attachment-based, solution-focused, and trauma-informed approaches. Together, we will identify the patterns keeping you stuck, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop tools you can use in everyday life. Culture, personal values, and faith can be incorporated when meaningful to you.

What you can expect from me

You can expect a warm, nonjudgmental space where you are supported and appropriately challenged. We will develop clear goals together, regularly review your progress, and focus on insight as well as practical action. My goal is to help you leave therapy with greater self-awareness, confidence, and skills you can continue using independently.
