Great to meet you!

Welcome! Congratulations on this courageous step toward healing. I am a compassionate and relational therapist who believes that healing happens through connection, understanding, and collaborative effort. With a strong foundation in evidence-based practices, I combine the latest research with a warm, individualized approach to support clients in navigating life’s challenges. Whether you're managing anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, or just seeking personal growth, I work to foster a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, and empowered to create meaningful change.

A bit about my approach to therapy

As your therapist I work through a holistic approach, recognizing that each person is unique with individualized strengths, and I tailor therapy to meet your specific needs. By drawing from modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), I help clients develop skills to manage difficult emotions, improve relationships, and cultivate resilience. Above all, I value the therapeutic relationship as a catalyst for transformation, believing that true growth emerges from trust, collaboration, and compassion.

What you can expect from our first session

In our initial session, we will work to identify strengths and areas of growth that you identify as meaningful goals. Throughout our time together, as a partner in your journey, I will seek to validate and challenge you to assist in achieving these goals. If you're ready to take the first step toward healing, I am here to support you on your journey to a more fulfilling and authentic life.
