Great to meet you!

Hi I'm glad you're here. Taking the step to start therapy can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate life's challenges alone. I am licensed therapist dedicated to creating a warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative space where you can feel truly heard and supported. I practice via telehealth and am currently accepting new patients.

My approach to therapy

My practice is open to individuals at all stages of life, including teenagers navigating identity and school stress, college students managing major life transitions, adults balancing career and family, and seniors facing new chapters or grief. I specialize in helping clients manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions. My therapeutic approach is deeply person-centered and strength-based, meaning I view you as the expert on your own life and focus on the resilience you already possess. Together, we will blend evidenced-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with grounding mindfulness techniques to help you break negative thought patterns and manage stress in real-time. No matter where you are on your journey, I meet you with deep empathy, a touch of humor, and practical tools tailored to your unique goals.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is entirely about connection, comfort, and collaboration. We will go at your pace-there is no pressure to have everything figured out. Here is what we will cover.

Getting settled: We will start by ensuring you feel comfortable and secure in our virtual space.

Your story: We will discuss what brings you to therapy right now and what you hope to gain from our time together.

Background Review: We will briefly touch up on your history and any past experiences with mental health support.

Goal Setting: We will begin outlining a flexible plan tailored to your specific needs and lifestyle.

Questions: You will have plenty of time to ask me about my approach or how telehealth therapy works.
