Great to meet you!

I have experience working with teens and adults navigating anxiety, burnout, depression, and trauma. I’m trained in CBT, EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

I’m especially drawn to working with individuals who feel overwhelmed while trying to hold everything together for others. My approach is warm, practical, and tailored to help you feel more grounded, confident, and supported.

My approach to therapy

My approach is supportive, collaborative, and practical. I work with teens and adults who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burned out, helping them better understand their thoughts and experiences while building tools to manage stress and feel more in control.

I use evidence-based therapies like CBT and EMDR, tailoring each session to your needs and goals. My style is warm and nonjudgmental, while also focused on helping you make meaningful, lasting changes in your daily life.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know you and what’s bringing you in. You can expect a supportive, relaxed conversation where you can share at your own pace—there’s no pressure to have everything figured out. We’ll talk about your goals and begin to explore how I can best support you moving forward.
