Great to meet you!

I’m a non-judgmental and warm therapist dedicated to creating a safe space where your experiences and emotions are honored. I understand that meaningful growth often happens at the edge of our comfort zones. That’s why I believe therapy should strike a balance between the familiar and the challenging—and I’m here to help you navigate that balance every step of the way.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work in 2010, focusing my early clinical work on substance use treatment, emotional regulation and management, and challenging unhelpful narratives and limiting beliefs. Over the years, I’ve witnessed the transformative power of holding both validation and encouragement in the same session. It’s my mission to support you compassionately, while also inviting you to stretch beyond old patterns that no longer serve you.

My approach to therapy

Every client is unique, so I tailor each session using evidence-based approaches that resonate with your goals and strengths. My toolkit includes:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
  • Solution-Focused Brief Therapy
  • Narrative Therapy
  • Motivational Interviewing

Whether you’re looking to develop healthier coping skills, rewrite an old story, or find the motivation to make lasting change, I’ll collaborate with you to choose the strategies that fit.

What you can expect from me

From your first session, you can expect a compassionate, attuned therapist that listens deeply to your story. I will provide honest feedback delivered with respect and care, collaborative goal-setting that aligns with your values, and creative tools and strategies customized for your life.

I view your trust as the cornerstone of our work together. It’s not given lightly, and I am committed to earning and re-earning it in every session. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, or relationship challenges, I will hold space for you, challenge you when needed, and celebrate your progress along the way.

If you’re ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and lasting change, I’m here to walk alongside you—providing warmth, validation, and the gentle push toward your next breakthrough.
