Great to meet you!

I believe that a strong, authentic therapeutic relationship is at the heart of meaningful change. I am a licensed therapist who has worked in a variety of settings, supporting people through some of life’s most difficult moments. I have experience working with children, adolescents, college students, and adult women. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported—while also encouraged to grow.

My approach to therapy

My approach is individualized, with a focus on helping you gain deeper insight into your experiences and patterns. I offer trauma-informed care and draw from a range of evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, IFS, CBT, and Christian-based therapy when desired. I view therapy as a collaborative process, where we work together to support healing, growth, and lasting change.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, my goal is to help ease any concerns you may have about starting therapy. I strive to create a comfortable and welcoming environment where I can begin getting to know you and your story. I’ll ask some questions to gain a clearer understanding of how best to support you, and there’s no pressure to share everything at once. By the end of our time together, I hope you’ll have enough information to decide if working together feels like a good fit.
