Great to meet you!

My goal is to help you understand yourself more deeply, build resilience, and discover the tools you need to create a fulfilling life. I want to help you peel away your layers to help you achieve your best self! I work with individuals, couples, and families, and I’m committed to supporting each person on their journey toward healing and self-discovery.

My approach to therapy

In my practice, I like to utilize a strengths-based approach because I believe every individual possesses unique resources, abilities, and values that can be drawn upon in the healing process. By focusing on strengths rather than solely on challenges, clients feel empowered and capable of creating meaningful change in their lives.

What you can expect from me

  • Build connection and comfort: We’ll take time to get to know one another at a pace that feels right for you. There is no pressure to share more than you’re ready to.
  • Explore what brings you to therapy: You’ll have the opportunity to talk about your concerns, stressors, goals, or questions about therapy.
  • Identify your strengths: Rather than focusing only on challenges, we’ll also explore your existing strengths, resilience, and coping skills—because growth builds on what’s already within you.
  • Clarify goals and hopes: Together, we’ll begin identifying what you want to work toward and what meaningful change looks like for you.
  • Understand the therapy process: I’ll explain how therapy works, what you can expect moving forward, and answer any questions you may have.
