Great to meet you!

At my practice, I use cognitive behavioral therapy to help individuals and couples navigate challenges related to relationships, depression, and anxiety. With a master's in counseling psychology, I provide a supportive and practical approach to help clients develop healthier thought patterns and coping strategies. With 20 years of experience, my goal is to empower you with the tools and insights needed to create meaningful and lasting change in your life.

My approach to therapy

In my approach to therapy, I create a warm and accepting space where clients feel heard and supported as they work through life’s challenges. Using research-based cognitive behavioral strategies, I help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills to foster positive change. My goal is to empower each person with effective tools that promote lasting growth, resilience, and well-being.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions, you can expect a safe and supportive environment where you can openly explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Through cognitive behavioral techniques, you’ll gain practical tools to manage stress, improve relationships, and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Over time, you’ll develop greater self-awareness, confidence, and resilience to navigate life’s challenges with more ease and clarity.
