Great to meet you!

Therapy should feel personal—built around you.

I work with adults who are tired of feeling stuck—in anxiety, relationships, or the same old patterns—and are ready for something different. I look at the whole picture: mind, body, habits, and environment, so you can start feeling more like yourself again, or more like the person you want to become.

My approach to therapy

My approach is down-to-earth and practical. I listen for how you want to feel differently and what you want to change—then we find tools that fit your life. I'm an active therapist: I'll ask questions, offer observations, and work alongside you. My goal is to give you skills and self-compassion, not keep you in therapy forever.

What you can expect from me

Your first session with me is about listening, not diagnosing. You'll share what's hard and what you hope to change. I'll answer any questions about how I work. I strive to create a warm, down-to-earth environment—one where you can be honest without feeling judged. (Fair warning: my tortie cat may occasionally photo-bomb our video sessions.) By the end of our first session, you'll have a clearer sense of whether I'm the right fit for you—no pressure to continue.

Reaching out shows a commitment to change—I'm glad you're here.
