Great to meet you!

I help adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. My style is practical and grounded. We set clear goals and use tools from CBT, ACT, and DBT that fit your life. Expect a calm, straightforward space where we work at your pace. We’ll work to recognize thoughts or patterns that keep you stuck and gently test them against real evidence. Together, we practice new ways of responding that line up better with your values and goals.


I hold a Master of Social Work and am a licensed clinical social worker. My background includes community mental health and private practice. I offer telehealth sessions and focus on practical tools you can use between sessions.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is practical, collaborative, and goal-oriented. I start by getting to know what’s been going on, what patterns are showing up, and what changes you want to see. From there, we set clear goals and take steps that move you forward. I often use CBT, ACT, and DBT strategies to help clients understand how thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and core beliefs connect. Together, we look at stuck points with curiosity and evidence. The goal is not to have you rehashing the same problems forever, but to build insight, practice new skills, and make meaningful changes in your daily life.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a calm, open, no-judgment space to share what’s been going on and what brought you in. I’ll ask some questions to get a clear picture of your background, what feels most pressing, and what you’d like to change. We’ll also start clarifying goals so you have a sense of direction. And you don’t need to have everything figured out before you show up.
