Great to meet you!

Life can be challenging; it can be helpful to remember that we don’t have to navigate those challenges alone. My goal is to help individuals strengthen their self-perception and harness the power of resilience. Whether you’re hopeful to manage symptoms, feel more equipped to handle the challenges life brings or are looking to engage in self-discovery, know that there is support. I am honored to partner with clients as they embark upon their journey toward meaningful change. Areas of focus include anxiety, depression, life transitions and identity concerns.

My approach to therapy

Despite adversity, I believe each of us possess the capacity for positive growth and transformation; My approach is collaborative, warm and affirming, utilizing CBT, Solution focused, Humanistic and Strength-Based treatment modalities.

What you can expect from me

By meeting you where you are right now, we’ll work towards establishing a rapport that helps you to feel safe, seen and understood. Together, we’ll tailor a plan individualized to meet your needs. By identifying your current strengths and future goals, we’ll create a framework that will empower you to develop tools for whatever comes next and shift towards living a more intentional and fulfilling life.
