Great to meet you!

I like to take a grounded approach that helps clients feel safe and supported while fostering individual growth. I'm committed to joining with you on facing your greatest challenges as we work on learning new methods for coping and sailing smoothly through stress. My hope is that through our work together you're able to reconnect with yourself and find your way to a more authentic, fulfilling life.

My approach to therapy

My style blends evidence-based structure with a warm, individualized approach. I draw from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness to support clients dealing with major challenges such as trauma, grief, and postpartum stress. I work gently and collaboratively, starting with emotional safety and connection, then building insight and capacity to create change.

What you can expect from me

When we first meet, you can expect a welcoming space where we get to know each other and talk about what’s been weighing on you. I’ll ask questions to understand your story, but there’s no rush and no expectation to share more than you’re ready for. I'll strive to get a sense of what feels most supportive for you right now and together we can start building a plan for change that feels grounding and manageable.
