Great to meet you!

I'm passionate about helping people feel understood, supported, and empowered to navigate life's challenges. My background includes working in outpatient mental health, community-based services, and crisis intervention, which has allowed me to support people through many different seasons of life.

I work with individuals who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, difficulty managing emotions, or feeling stuck in life. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can show up as you are without feeling judged or pressured to have everything figured out.

My approach to therapy

I take an eclectic approach to therapy, utilizing a variety of evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I tailor my approach to each your unique needs, experiences, and goals, creating a collaborative space where we can explore challenges, build on existing strengths, and develop practical tools for everyday life.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin building a trusting relationship. We'll talk about what brings you to therapy, your goals, and what you'd like support with. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. You don't need to have all the answers—we'll figure things out together, one step at a time.
