Great to meet you!

I support teens, adults, and families who are navigating life transitions, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, grief, identity exploration, anxiety, depression, and the lasting impact of difficult or traumatic experiences. Whether you are feeling disconnected from yourself, struggling to break painful relational patterns, or simply trying to find steadiness during a difficult season of life, therapy can become a space where healing and clarity begin to emerge.

My approach to therapy

My approach is firmly grounded in trauma-informed, identity-affirming, and anti-racist care. I strive to create an inclusive therapeutic space where all parts of your identity and lived experience are welcomed and respected. I view therapy as a collaborative process, and I deeply value the courage it takes to begin healing work.

You do not have to navigate everything alone. Together, we can work toward helping you feel more empowered, connected, and aligned with who you are becoming.

What you can expect from me

I believe healing happens in relationship- where you feel safe, seen, valued, and truly understood. With nearly two decades of experience, I bring a relational and eclectic approach to therapy that honors the uniqueness of each person’s story. I integrate warmth, curiosity, compassion, and authenticity into my work, creating an environment where clients can explore their inner world without judgment.
