Great to meet you!

Now accepting new clients for medication management and therapy:

If you’ve been thinking, “I can’t keep living like this,” it’s a sign that you’re ready for change. I take a supportive approach to mental health, guiding you through the transition from where you are now to where you want to be, helping you explore new possibilities and experiences.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Mental health is more than just symptoms or a diagnosis. It’s a process shaped by a mix of biological, psychological, and social factors that influence our daily lives. In my practice, I offer a comfortable and supportive space where we can explore your personal experiences, beliefs, goals, and readiness for change.

What you can expect from our first session

During our first session, we will start with a comprehensive medical intake to get a full understanding of your health and background. From there, we’ll explore how medications, therapy, and lifestyle changes can work together to help you take an active role in your mental health journey. My goal is to support you in a way that stays true to who you are and the vision you have for your life.
