Congratulations on taking the next step toward becoming the very best version of yourself! If you're ready to begin the work, I'd love to take the journey with you. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 14 years of counseling experience and two graduate degrees in counseling. I have advanced training in approaches such as CBT, ACT, and mindfulness, and I tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs. I specialize in supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My style is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you find healing and resilience.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each individual. I recognize that every client brings unique strengths, experiences, and challenges, so I work to create a safe and supportive space where you feel both heard and empowered. I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches, selecting strategies that best fit your goals and personality. Clients often find that my style balances warmth and empathy with practical, solution-focused tools they can begin using right away. I specialize in helping people navigate life transitions, heal from trauma, manage anxiety and depression, and explore deeper meaning in their lives. No matter what brings you to therapy, my goal is to help you move forward with clarity, resilience, and self-compassion.

Clients can expect to leave sessions with a greater sense of clarity, hope, and practical tools they can use in daily life. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable exploring your thoughts and emotions. Together, we’ll identify what matters most to you and work toward meaningful change at a pace that feels right. You can expect to gain coping strategies for challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions, while also developing long-term skills for resilience, self-compassion, and healthier relationships. Above all, I want you to feel empowered—knowing you are not alone and that positive, lasting growth is possible.
