Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals through a variety of mental health challenges. I have worked with clients facing concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting difficulties, career challenges, OCD, ADHD, Borderline Personality Disorder, and Mood Disorders. I am also experienced in helping individuals who have experienced physical and emotional trauma.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach is genuine, interactive, and rooted in respect, dignity, and compassion. As a trained Dialectical Behavioral Therapist (DBT), I focus on providing evidence-based interventions that empower clients to build a life worth living. I prioritize creating personalized, client-focused treatment plans to support each individual’s unique goals and growth. I am always eager to learn and help.
