Great to meet you!

I have several years of experience working in the field of mental health and wellness and specialize in areas of: depression, anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions, and overall wellness. I work with individuals 18 years and older.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is individualized to each specific client, as everyone has different needs. I prioritize building the therapeutic relationship first and provide therapy in a comfortable, safe, non-judgmental space. I incorporate several therapeutic techniques into my sessions, including CBT and person-centered therapy. I help individuals address challenges, emotions, and stressors while empowering them to create positive and lasting change in their life.

What you can expect from me

I have a true understanding of how difficult the therapeutic journey can be and the courage it takes to seek help when we need it. When leaving sessions with me, the expectation is that you feel understood, validated, and heard. I strive for every client to leave sessions with a better understanding of themselves and a feeling of empowerment to help them make the changes necessary to live an improved and fulfilling life.
