Great to meet you!

I’m a compassionate therapist who helps clients navigate challenges like stress, anxiety, life transitions, and relationship concerns. I create a nonjudgmental, grounded space where you can slow down, understand what’s really going on beneath the surface, and start making choices that feel more aligned with the life you want. My approach is collaborative and practical—together, we’ll set clear goals and work at a pace that feels right for you.

My approach to therapy

Drawing from evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral tools, mindfulness, and insight-oriented therapy, I tailor each session to your unique needs, identity, and lived experience. I pay close attention to the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, while also highlighting your strengths and resilience. Clients often describe me as warm, straightforward, and easy to talk to.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a calm, nonjudgmental space where we get to know each other and talk about what brought you to therapy now. I’ll ask some questions about what you’ve been experiencing—things like stress, anxiety, life transitions, or relationship concerns—and we’ll start to explore what feels most important for you to focus on.
