Great to meet you!

I have experience working with people from a variety of backgrounds and am passionate about supporting individuals through life transitions, stress management, trauma recovery, and mental health challenges. I help clients who are struggling with: stress, anxiety, and overwhelm; depression and emotional regulation; post-traumatic adjustment and growth; self-esteem and confidence-building; relationship issues, including communication and boundaries; grief and loss; paralyzing perfectionism; family dynamics and parenting support. I'd be honored to work alongside you as you develop new habits and cultivate a more meaningful life.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I tend to be highly empathetic as well as direct and solution-focused. I have an eclectic style and integrate the influence of several trauma-informed modalities. I encourage clients to identify and provide the compassion that they needed at the time of the loss or traumatic experience.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients will learn coping skills to step back from the issues that result in pain and have a felt sense of relief from past traumas and options toward building an improved life quality.
