Great to meet you!

I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, perfectionism, anger management, difficulties with setting healthy boundaries, and concerns related to identity, LGBTQ+ experiences, and self-acceptance. I also support individuals who are struggling with stress, self-criticism, and persistent negative thought patterns that can leave them feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from the life they want to lead.

My approach to therapy

In my work, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy, recognizing that every client brings a unique set of experiences, strengths, and challenges. I also completed a post-graduate certification in Advanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy at New York University. I tailor treatment to each individual's needs, creating a warm, collaborative, and supportive environment where meaningful growth and lasting change can take place.

What you can expect from me

Grounded in trust, compassion, fairness, and accountability, I take a practical yet empathetic approach to therapy while fostering an authentic therapeutic relationship. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, I work closely with clients to develop personalized strategies that align with their values, goals, and strengths. Through this process, I help individuals build resilience, cultivate self-compassion, and create a more balanced, fulfilling, and meaningful life.
