Great to meet you!

Hello! I am truly grateful you’re here considering me as your therapist. I’ve struggled in my own relationships, and alongside my professional training and clinical work, this has shaped my passion for working with experiencing relationship-related issues. I work with adult clients who are experiencing emotional disconnection from a partner, depression, anxiety, unhealthy relationship patterns, low self-esteem, and unresolved trauma. Many of my clients come to me during times of transition, such as a breakup, divorce, or identity crisis. Others struggle with impostor syndrome, overwhelming guilt or shame, and intimacy issues.

(Please note: I only accept in-network for individuals. Couples counseling is out-of-network.)

My approach to therapy

I’m trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy and believe in the power of emotions. One belief I live by is this: allow yourself to feel. Your emotions can be a guiding light toward your happiness, even when it doesn’t feel like it at first. My approach is humanistic, collaborative, and direct. I connect with you on a genuine, human level offering honest, compassionate feedback and thoughtful guidance. You can expect empathy, evocative questions, meaningful reflections, validation, and a gentle deepening of your emotional experience. I also honor and integrate spirituality and faith when it’s meaningful to you.

What you can expect from me

In our first 1–2 sessions, we’ll begin with an assessment phase. During this time, I’ll gather information about your history, current concerns, and overall goals to gain a deeper understanding of your situation. Together, we’ll collaborate on a treatment plan that feels aligned and manageable for you.

My sessions are designed to give you the space to be your most authentic self and teach you self-compassion. When was the last time you felt truly seen and understood just for being you?
