Great to meet you!

If anxiety, self-doubt, or feeling emotionally stuck is getting in the way of the life you want, therapy can help. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, mood concerns, self-esteem, identity, while being conscious of the impact of culture and trauma.


My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in CBT, mindfulness, and holistic care. Together, we’ll build practical tools while exploring the deeper patterns shaping how you see yourself and relate to others.


When we work together, my hope is that you experience warmth, curiosity, and grounded expertise. I believe that honesty, transparency, and clear boundaries are what make therapy feel safe, effective, and genuinely collaborative.


My goal is for you to leave therapy with greater clarity, self-trust, and confidence in your ability to move forward.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and client-centered. I focus on helping clients better understand their emotional and behavioral patterns, strengthen coping skills, and develop insight into how past experiences influence present challenges.

I integrate evidence-based strategies such as cognitive and behavioral therapy, emotion regulation skills (including DBT-informed techniques), and supportive psychotherapy. Therapy with me is active and engaged, with an emphasis on emotional safety.

I aim to create a space where clients can reflect honestly without fear of judgment and make changes that feel sustainable and aligned with their values.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a welcoming and structured environment. We’ll spend time discussing what brings you to therapy and what you’re hoping to get out of the process.

Together, we’ll identify initial goals and discuss what therapy might look like moving forward. My goal is for you to leave the first session feeling supported and clear about next steps.
