Great to meet you!

Clients often tell me they’ve never had a therapist quite like me. My style is active, collaborative, and grounded in honest conversation. I’m practical, direct, and down-to-earth. I won’t simply nod along or repeat what you’ve already told me. I’ll ask questions, connect dots, and help you see yourself and your situation more clearly.


I work well with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in patterns they’re ready to change. Understanding your diagnosis or past experiences can be an important part of therapy, but it’s only part of the picture. We’ll focus on understanding the full context of your life while identifying what’s within your control and finding meaningful ways to move forward.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy should be more than a place to vent. Insight is valuable, but insight alone doesn’t create change. Together, we’ll explore the beliefs, habits, fears, and relationship dynamics that continue to influence your life while developing practical ways to respond differently.


My approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and person-centered therapy. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor therapy to your goals, strengths, and needs.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is about understanding what’s bringing you to therapy and deciding whether we’re a good fit. I’ll ask direct questions to get a clear picture of what’s going on, and you’re always welcome to ask me questions about how I work. I also welcome honest feedback throughout the process. Therapy works best when we can have open conversations about what’s helping, what isn’t, and what you need.


If you’re looking for a therapist who will think with you, challenge you thoughtfully, and help you create meaningful, lasting change rather than simply helping you feel better in the moment, we’ll likely work well together.
