I believe therapy should be a space where you can slow down, be honest, and better understand yourself without feeling judged. As a therapist, I’m warm, compassionate, and curious, and I believe there is value in creating space to explore the parts of yourself that may be difficult to understand or put into words.

I work with women who may feel overwhelmed by the many roles and expectations in their lives and who are ready to reconnect with themselves. You don’t have to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. My role is to walk alongside you as you gain clarity, build self-trust, explore your patterns, and learn how to show up in your life and relationships in ways that feels more authentic to you.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, person-centered, and focused on helping you better understand yourself and the patterns that shape the way you think, feel, and relate to others. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and therapy should be a place where we work together rather than me simply telling you what to do.

Depending on what you need, I may incorporate approaches that help you manage anxiety, navigate relationships, establish boundaries, process past experiences, and make decisions that align with your values.

I’m less interested in simply helping you “fix” a problem and more interested in helping you understand yourself, develop practical tools, and create meaningful changes that can carry into your everyday life.

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin understanding what brought you to therapy. We’ll talk about what you’re currently experiencing, what you hope will be different, and what you would like support with.

You don’t need to come prepared with the perfect explanation or know exactly what you need from therapy. We can start wherever you are and work together to make sense of what’s going on. I’ll also ask questions to better understand your history, relationships, current stressors, and goals so we can begin developing a direction for our work together.

Most importantly, I want you to leave your first session feeling like you have a clearer understanding of where we can begin.
