Great to meet you!

Therapy is a journey that can be wonderful, exhausting, and awakening all at the same time. I am here to walk with you, to help navigate the challenges in life that stand in the way of healing. My therapy focuses on providing compassionate, direct, personalized care using a warm, emphatic and interactive approach to counseling. We are going to have hard conversations while laughing and crying together.

My approach to therapy

I work with individuals with varying unique needs and experiences throughout their life. I take a holistic deconstructed approach, tailoring treatments to meet the needs of each person. I specialize in working with people who have experienced low to high levels of trauma, neurodivergent diagnosis as well as attachment concerns.

What you can expect from me

I focus on empowering clients to reach their mental health goals, using trauma informed and evidence-based treatment practices. I understand that everyone's journey has its twists and turns, but with the right tools and proper support, you can achieve the peace you seek.
