Great to meet you!

As humans, we are all wired for connection. When we feel heard, seen, validated, and supported, we are able to heal. I would love to provide a safe space for you to reconnect, find stability, and grow into the person you want to be. Whether you have experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, challenges with your partner or are having trouble adjusting to a new location, we can partner together to find effective ways to help you towards a healthier you.

My approach to therapy

My approach is inherently empathetic, non-judgmental and strength-based. Therapy is a place to bring your whole self, wherever you are at in your journey. If you are feeling ready to take the first step, please reach out to me to talk. I am EMDR certified.

New ways of looking at situations, creative ideas to better. your life and personalized meditations if you are open to it.
