Great to meet you!

I provide compassionate, client-centered therapy for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, relationship concerns, family conflict, and life transitions.

My approach to therapy

Using evidence-based therapies such as CBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, I'll work alongside you to build effective coping skills, strengthen resilience, and support meaningful, lasting growth.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin building a strong therapeutic relationship. We'll spend time talking about what brings you to therapy, what challenges you're currently facing, and what you hope to gain from the process. I'll also ask questions about your background, relationships, and experiences to better understand the whole picture.

This is also your chance to ask questions, share what has or hasn't worked for you in the past, and discuss what you're looking for in a therapist. Together, we'll identify your goals and begin creating a plan that feels meaningful and tailored to your needs. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable moving at a pace that feels right for you.
