Great to meet you!

You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, even when you know something needs to change. Maybe you’re dealing with anxiety, relationship or family conflict, grief, a major life transition, or difficulty with focus and executive functioning. I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults, and I also support parents who are navigating the challenges of raising teens. With 10 years of experience, I bring a warm, conversational, and direct style to therapy. I want you to feel understood, but I also want you to leave therapy with a clearer sense of what to do next.

My approach to therapy

I’m an active participant in therapy. I listen, ask questions, offer honest feedback, and respectfully challenge you to consider a different perspective when it could help. I use an integrative, client-centered approach that draws from CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and strength-based therapy depending on what you need. Together, we’ll look at the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, strengthen your coping and communication skills, and focus on practical changes that can improve your relationships, confidence, and day-to-day life.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a chance to talk about what’s happening now, what brought you to therapy, and what you want to be different. You don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet. I’ll ask questions, get to know you and your perspective, and work with you to identify where it makes sense to begin. My goal is for you to leave that first conversation feeling heard, with a clearer idea of what we can work on together. If you think we may be a good fit, book a free consultation and let’s talk.
