Great to meet you!
Meaningful change starts with feeling understood. With 18 years of experience in education, including school counseling, I saw how much support people need beyond the school setting.

My approach to therapy
I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD, identity concerns, and life transitions. Our work may include exploring how past experiences shape current beliefs, strengthening emotional regulation, and finding approaches that fit your life and goals. Sessions are tailored to you, with room for both honest reflection and real progress.
What you can expect from me
The first session is a chance for me to get to know you beyond the intake paperwork.
My style is warm, honest, and direct, with a little humor when the moment calls for it. By the end of our first session, we’ll have a clearer idea of your goals and where to begin.
