Great to meet you!

I help adolescents, adults, couples, and families move beyond patterns that keep them stuck. Using EMDR, CBT, and DBT, I focus on building insight, strengthening coping skills, and creating lasting change. I approach therapy with a clear understanding of how past experiences can shape current patterns, while helping clients build practical tools to improve daily functioning. My background in crisis work allows me to provide steady, effective support even in high-stress situations.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy integrates evidence-based practices, including EMDR, CBT, and DBT, to support meaningful and lasting change. I approach therapy with a clear understanding of how past experiences can shape current patterns, while helping clients build insight, develop practical skills, and create meaningful change. I provide a supportive, collaborative space that balances compassion with gentle challenge, empowering clients to improve functioning, strengthen relationships, and move forward with intention.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect the first session to focus on getting to know their concerns, history, and goals in a supportive, nonjudgmental environment. I will ask thoughtful questions to better understand patterns, current stressors, and what they hope to gain from therapy, while also providing space for them to share at their own pace. By the end of the session, we will begin identifying initial goals and next steps, creating a clear and collaborative direction for treatment.
