Great to meet you!

I believe we are so much more than the challenges we face—yet sometimes, those challenges can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected from the joy and ease life can offer. How we move through these difficult places is essential to our well-being. As a supportive guide, I’m here to help you strengthen your inner resources and expand your capacity not just to survive, but to truly thrive. I know healing is possible. I’m glad you found your way here, and I warmly welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you on this journey.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I approach therapy as a transformative journey—one that fosters self-understanding, acceptance, resolution, and ultimately, liberation. As an Integrative Therapist, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs. Together, we’ll explore practices that support embodiment, helping you reconnect with your nervous system, manage stress, and build the capacity for lasting healing and growth. Because healing doesn’t happen in isolation, we’ll also explore the importance of community and cultivating the support systems that nourish you.

What you can expect from our first session

Many people leave our first session feeling a sense of hope and relief. I offer a warm, welcoming space where you can feel at ease as we begin this journey together. We'll collaborate to clarify your goals and create a plan that feels supportive and achievable. One of the most meaningful takeaways is the reminder that you are not alone—you have support. I’m here to walk with you through this process, one step, one session at a time.
