Great to meet you!

I believe that everyone is a celebration of life. You are a celebration of life. My goal is to help you recognize exactly what you have to offer the world and, more importantly, to help you learn to celebrate yourself.

My path to becoming a therapist started early. I was born with a congenital heart defect and was adopted as a child; these experiences gave me a unique perspective on resilience and the need for support. Working through that in my youth is was lucky enough to have the support of a wonderful doctor who helped me navigate my mental health. That experience sparked a calling in me: I wanted to serve others with the same kindness, compassion, and warmth that changed my life.

My approach to therapy

While I provide a gentle and welcoming space, I am also solution-oriented. We aren’t just here to talk; we are here to help you achieve the life you want. I combine 40+ years of clinical experience with an energetic yet supportive approach to help you uncover your inherent strengths.

I’m here to be your advocate and partner in health. Let’s work together to unveil your best self and get you back to celebrating your life.

What you can expect from me

I believe the foundation of any breakthrough is trust . In our first session, we won’t just dive into a checklist. We will spend time building a relationship of mutual respect where you feel truly safe. I want to understand the "why" behind what brought you to therapy today and, more importantly, the "where"—as in, where do you want to go?
