Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Therapist with nearly 25 years of experience helping children, adolescents, and families build emotional resilience and create healthier relationships. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in the same patterns, you do not have to navigate it alone. Having served as a clinical director in the past, I am deeply committed to providing direct care and creating a supportive environment where my clients can thrive.

My approach to therapy

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. Rather than just focusing on symptoms, I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Ecosystemic Family Structural Therapy (EFST) to help you understand exactly how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors connect. We will work together to develop practical tools that foster meaningful, lasting change in your daily life.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we will focus on getting to know each other and understanding the specific challenges that brought you to therapy. We will establish a comfortable, judgment-free space to talk about your goals and begin outlining a clear, collaborative path forward.
