Great to meet you!

I'm a licensed psychotherapist with over seven years of experience in private practice, dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion and clarity. I practice from a person-centered, holistic perspective—believing that each client’s journey is unique and deserving of tailored support.

My approach integrates evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and EMDR, depending on your specific needs and goals. I strive to create a warm, safe, and affirming space where you can feel seen and heard. While I offer support with empathy and understanding, I also believe in gently challenging patterns when it can support growth and healing.

Building a strong therapeutic alliance is central to my work. My priority is to meet you where you are, honor your lived experience, and walk alongside you toward greater self-awareness, healing, and empowerment.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is person-centered, holistic, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens within a safe, supportive, and collaborative relationship. I tailor our work together to your unique needs, drawing from modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and EMDR when appropriate.

I strive to create a warm, affirming space where you feel genuinely seen and heard. While I offer a compassionate and nonjudgmental presence, I also believe in the power of thoughtful, respectful challenge when it can support growth and insight. I value the therapeutic alliance as a foundation for healing, and I’m committed to meeting you exactly where you are—honoring your pace, your experiences, and your strengths.
