Great to meet you!

My practice is built on genuine connection. I take time to understand what brings each person through the door, what they have already tried, and what matters most to them as they work toward feeling better. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and PTSD, and I work primarily through telehealth so care fits into your life rather than the other way around. My caseload stays intentionally small, which means you get real attention and continuity, not a revolving door. I look forward to learning your story and working with you toward the changes you are hoping for.

My approach to therapy

I approach each session as a collaboration. I ask questions, listen carefully, and work with you to understand what is driving your symptoms and what treatment options make the most sense for your life and goals. Good care is built on trust, clear communication, and genuine curiosity about who you are.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a conversation. I will ask about what brought you in, your history, and your goals. By the end, we will have a shared sense of what you are experiencing and a clear plan for how we can work together. You will leave knowing what comes next.
