Great to meet you!

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, and my goal is to make that first step feel a little easier. I approach my work with warmth, compassion, and genuine curiosity about each person’s story. I support clients in gently unpacking the thoughts and experiences that may be contributing to anxiety and depression, while offering empathy and practical tools along the way. You don’t have to navigate this alone—we’ll work through it together.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in compassion. I believe healing begins in a space where you feel safe, heard, and understood. I work alongside clients to gently explore the thoughts and experiences that may be contributing to anxiety and depression, while offering both emotional support and practical tools for change. Together, we move at your pace to build insight, resilience, and a greater sense of balance.

What you can expect from me

The first session is really about getting to know you. We’ll have a conversation about what’s been going on in your life and what led you to seek therapy. I may ask about your background, relationships, and overall well-being so I can better understand the bigger picture.

There’s no pressure to share everything at once—we’ll go at a pace that feels comfortable for you. We’ll also talk about what you’re hoping for from therapy and make sure you have space to ask any questions along the way.
