Great to meet you!

I bring an action oriented approach to therapy in helping clients address and better understand the patterns that keep them feeling stuck, disconnected, and unfulfilled. I specialize in anxiety, relationship issues, addiction, depression, anger, and compulsive behaviors.

My approach to therapy

My approach focuses on helping clients better understand how past experiences and current patterns influence their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I'm actively engaged in sessions, offering feedback, perspective, and practical tools to help clients make changes in their lives.

What you can expect from me

The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and better understand what brings you to therapy. We'll discuss your background, current challenges, and what you're hoping to get out of our work together. My goal is that you leave the first session feeling heard and understood, and with a clearer sense of how we can move forward together.
