About Me

I am a dedicated counselor specializing in trauma, anxiety, PTSD, depression, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. With a deep commitment to supporting individuals through some of life’s most challenging moments, my approach is grounded in empathy, respect, and understanding. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can begin your healing journey.

My approach to therapy

My Approach

Healing is not a one-size-fits-all process, so I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet the unique needs of each client. By using evidence-based therapies such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), I help clients process traumatic experiences, reframe negative thought patterns, and build healthier coping mechanisms. My goal is to empower you with the tools to manage and overcome the challenges you face while fostering a sense of hope and resilience.

What you can expect from me

I work collaboratively with clients, ensuring that you feel heard, supported, and actively involved in your therapy. I believe that trust is key to a successful therapeutic relationship, and I take the time to build that with you. My approach is warm, caring, and client-centered, helping you feel comfortable and safe to explore difficult emotions and experiences.
