Great to meet you!

I believe therapy is a collaborative process that creates space for healing and growth. My goal is to help clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to explore their experiences. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, OCD, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, personal growth, and the impact of chronic illness and pain. I have years of experience in the inpatient psychiatric settings working with adults with chronic illness; specifically Multiple Sclerosis and other neurological conditions.

My approach to therapy

I use evidence-based approaches such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) , Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness based approaches to meet my clients’ unique needs and help clients develop greater flexibility, manage difficult emotions, and reconnect with what matters most to them.

As someone living with a chronic condition, I bring both personal insight and professional understanding to the experiences that can often feel isolating and overwhelming. My goal is to help clients find connection, resilience, and support in the places that may feel lonely or difficult to navigate.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a warm, compassionate environment that also provides structure for growth and meaningful change. Together, we will identify both short- and long-term goals, develop practical tools for navigating challenges, and cultivate deeper insight into yourself and your relationships.
