Great to meet you!

I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist with a doctoral degree in psychology; who supports families, teenagers, and couples through life’s challenges — with warmth, insight, and a creative spirit. My approach is rooted in deep empathy and evidence-based models, but also shaped by my love for nature, art, and the wisdom found in stillness and reflection.

Whether you're navigating conflict, changes or adjustments in life, stress, or simply feeling stuck, I offer a safe holding space, welcoming space where we can explore, heal, and be part of your growth or life story. If you value openness, creativity, and a grounded, thoughtful guide — we may be a great fit.

My approach to therapy

I offer a warm, inviting and grounded space for families, teenagers, and couples seeking support through life’s challenges — especially those shaped by multigenerational patterns.

My approach blends evidence-based models like Trauma-Focused CBT and Solution-Focused Therapy with Narrative, Behavioral, and Family-oriented interventions. I draw from Psychoanalytic and Holistic perspectives, always through a strength-based lens and often with mindfulness practices interwoven.

What you can expect from me

Clients often walk away with a new lens on life — more reflective, intentional, and resilient. Together, we build the tools to approach life from new stances, foster deeper relationships, and make meaningful relationships, self-awareness in the choices made or new opportunities in life.

If you're ready for that kind of growth, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
