Great to meet you!

As an LICSW, I specialize in helping adults 18+ navigate anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder as well as family and relationship dynamics. Whether you're struggling with chronic worry, panic, perfectionism, low self-esteem, life transitions, or difficulties communicating and connecting with the people you care about, I am here to provide a space to slow down, be present, make sense of what's happening, to begin moving forward.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is warm and collaborative, creating a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered. I believe that meaningful change comes from understanding the patterns that keep you stuck while also learning practical skills you can use in your everyday life. You are the expert on your life, and I bring the tools and guidance to help you navigate it.

What you can expect from me

Seeking therapy can feel overwhelming. Reaching out for support in scheduling your first session takes courage, and I commend you for investing in yourself and your well-being. When you work with me, you can expect an opportunity to be heard and feel safe. We will celebrate your progress together, navigate setbacks with curiosity rather than judgment, and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.
