Great to meet you!

I am a licensed psychologist with experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, where I’ve had the privilege of supporting veterans and emerging adults through life’s toughest transitions. My approach is rooted in cultural humility and a deep respect for your unique story, especially when navigating the weight of anxiety, depression, or the stress of major life adjustments. I focus on building a genuine connection to help you gain the insight and practical resilience needed to feel more balanced and confident in your daily life.

My approach to therapy

My approach is grounded in empathy and evidence-based practice, specifically utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process where we work together to understand the patterns that may be holding you back. Whether you are navigating life transitions, managing anxiety, or seeking to build greater psychological flexibility, my goal is to provide a supportive space where you can develop practical tools to live a more meaningful and value-driven life.

What you can expect from me

In your first session, my primary goal is to foster an environment of genuine trust and safety where you feel comfortable sharing your story. We will focus on building a strong therapeutic alliance and exploring your specific needs to determine if my approach is the right fit for your journey. This initial meeting is an open space for us to collaborate on what you hope to achieve and ensure you feel confident in our path forward.
