Great to meet you!

I am a licensed therapist with extensive experience working with first responders and their families. I understand the unique stressors that accompany careers in emergency services, including exposure to trauma, high-stakes decision-making, shift work, and the impact these demands can have on personal relationships and overall well-being.

My approach to therapy

My approach is compassionate, practical, and collaborative, focused on helping clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, and develop effective coping strategies. I strive to provide a supportive, confidential space where first responders and their loved ones feel understood, respected, and empowered to move forward.

What you can expect from me

The first session is also an opportunity to discuss how therapy works, what outcomes you can reasonably expect, and how we can collaborate to support your needs. My approach is practical and goal-oriented while remaining compassionate and flexible. You will leave the session with a clearer understanding of next steps and a sense of direction, as well as reassurance that therapy is a safe space designed to support growth, resilience, and positive change.
