Great to meet you!

You are the expert of your own life; my role is to guide and empower you with tools and insights.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative & client-centered. I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences openly. Drawing from evidence-based practices such as mindfulness and CBT, I'm committed to transparency—not just in thought, but in dismantling the cognitive barriers between who you’re taught to be and who you truly are. I work with you to identify goals and build coping strategies while fostering this meaningful change. I integrate solution-focused, holistic techniques to help you develop self-awareness, resilience, and tools for navigating life’s challenges. Whether you're addressing anxiety, depression, grief, child sexual abuse, or personal growth, my focus is on empowering your transformation at your pace.

What you can expect from me

Therapy with me is goal-oriented and action-driven. If you’re tired of venting without change, I’ll help you build a clear roadmap forward. Think of me as your compassionate accountability partner!
