Great to meet you!

Since 2014, I have been a therapist working with adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and relationship problems. Whether you’re navigating identity issues, working through past traumas, or simply seeking greater meaning in your life or relationships, change is possible.

My approach to therapy

I use methods based on how early relationships shape us, ways to find meaning in life, respectful listening, and understanding how past experiences affect the present. I help clients feel heard, understood, build better connections, and grow into who they want to be. Your experience will be one of feeling supported and affirmed.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, we will focus on getting to know one another. It is important to me that you feel comfortable, heard, respected, and understood.
