Great to meet you!

I know reaching out for support can feel like a big step, especially if you’ve been trying to manage things on your own for a long time. With over 10 years of experience, I help people who are dealing with trauma, depression, anxiety, and childhood emotional or behavioral challenges find practical ways to feel better. Together, we’ll focus on what’s going well, what you’d like to change, and small, realistic steps that can create meaningful shifts in your day-to-day life.

My approach to therapy

My approach blends solution-focused, trauma-informed care with evidence-based tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). In our sessions, you can expect a warm, energetic, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your own healing process.

What you can expect from me

I believe everyone is on a unique journey with their own goals, and I see my role as a guide walking alongside you—not telling you where to go. We’ll collaborate to build resilience, strengthen coping skills, and work toward long-term well-being. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be honored to support you as you move toward the life you want.
