Great to meet you!

I'm a warm, straightforward therapist who enjoys helping high-functioning adults manage stress, navigate life transitions, improve relationships, and find greater balance. I believe therapy can be valuable even when you're not in crisis and can provide a supportive space for growth, reflection, and change.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, supportive, and practical. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process where we work together to better understand your concerns, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop strategies that fit your life and goals.

What you can expect from me

During the first session, we'll discuss what brings you to therapy, your current challenges, and what you hope to gain from our work together. It's also an opportunity for you to ask questions and determine whether I am a good fit for your needs. My goal is to create a comfortable, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and understood.
