Great to meet you!

Hi! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My love for connecting with others inspired me to explore a career in mental health. The experience in watching my clients gain insight, feel empowered, and grow in their therapeutic journey drives me to keep doing this work. My communication style as a therapist is warm, curious, and empowering to create a safe space for you to feel seen and be supported. I believe therapy is a collaborative effort. The goal through our work together is to foster a space that is safe, authentic, empowering, and allows you to explore and achieve your goals.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is integrative. It honors your individuality and supports your unique journey towards exploring, growing, and healing. Life is filled with both beautiful and challenging experiences. I appreciate establishing strong therapeutic alliances with my clients so I can assess the best interventions towards treatment. My therapeutic approach is flexible. Ultimately, I am here to support you.

What you can expect from me

During your first session, you can expect us to start building on our therapeutic alliance, exploring your needs, and establishing a treatment plan that will be supportive in achieving your goals.
