Great to meet you!

My journey into the mental health field began from my curiosity about human resilience. Over the course of my career, I have worked across diverse clinical settings—ranging from high-intensity crisis environments to outpatient therapy—allowing me to develop a versatile, adaptive, and highly responsive approach to care.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy should be a collaborative, down-to-earth partnership where you feel genuinely seen and supported. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where we can tackle your biggest challenges head-on and build practical tools for lasting change. I anchor my practice heavily in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills so you are prepared for challenges that you may encounter.

What you can expect from me

Whether you are trying to stabilize during a difficult season or looking to rescue a struggling marriage, we will work at a pace that honors your story while actively building the concrete skills you need to thrive. I am here to help weather the storm when your symptoms, stressors, or crises feel at their highest and most urgent.
