Great to meet you!

When you're feeling overwhelmed, at a loss, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, the safe space of therapy can help restore your sense of self. Together, we may help you quiet self-criticism, calm your emotions, or rebuild strained relationships. I offer a space to slow down and make sense of what’s happening. My approach is warm, collaborative and grounded in effective practices. I deeply believe in the potential in everyone, and gladly meet clients where they are each step of the way. Most clients begin to feel relief in the first few sessions.

My approach to therapy

My work often focuses on distress around relationships, anxiety, trauma/ PTSD, depression, grief, self-esteem, identity, and navigating life transitions. My approach is grounded in compassionate, effective practices, creating space for healing, connection and growth.

What you can expect from me

During the first session, I work collaboratively with clients to understand what brings them to therapy, discuss any questions about starting therapy, formulate a working plan for moving forward, and in the process begin to address your immediate distress.
