Great to meet you!

I'm a licensed therapist who specializes in supporting adolescents,young adults, and millennials who are navigating identity, relationships, and emotional healing. My work integrates both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Behavioral Therapy (SFBT) where I strive to help you connect with your inner thoughts and identify personal strengths to support taking the necessary steps for desired goals. I offer a collaborative and nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself and feel genuinely heard.

My approach to therapy

I offer a warm, affirming space where all parts of you are welcome-especially the ones that feel wounded, stuck, or unheard.

What you can expect from me

I want my clients to know that therapy with me is a collaborative and nonjudgmental experience. I understand that opening up can feel difficult, so I work to create a safe and comfortable space where you can be yourself and feel genuinely heard. My approach is warm, honest, and practical. Together, we will identify your strengths, explore the challenges affecting your life, and develop tools that support meaningful and lasting change. I especially enjoy helping adolescents and young adults build confidence, manage difficult emotions, strengthen their coping skills, and feel more in control of their lives.
