Great to meet you!

I help clients move from overwhelm to confidence by offering therapy that is both compassionate and results‐driven. My approach blends warmth with evidence‐based strategies, using DBT, ERP, CBT, I-CBT and EMDR to create meaningful, measurable change. Clients come to me because they want a therapist who is engaged, collaborative, and committed to helping them reach their goals.

I specialize in treating life transitions, trauma, anxiety, depression, Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), with a strong passion for supporting individuals with developmental disabilities, neurodivergent and their families.

For clients working through trauma or distressing experiences, has normal "talk therapy" not helped you process events. I integrate EMDR to accelerate healing, reduce emotional intensity, and support long‐term resilience. My EMDR work is structured, supportive, and grounded in safety. The intake is a typical intake, but then the EMDR proceeds.

For Obsessive Compulsive Disorder I use a mixture of I-CBT and ERP therapy. This instills a sense of control and empowerment to my clients. Helping to identify the triggers of the intrusive thought/ compulsion and gaining coping skills on how to handle this discomfort.

I am dedicated to creating an affirming, inclusive space for all clients, including those in the LGBTQIA+ community. My practice is built on respect, authenticity, and the belief that everyone deserves a place where they can show up fully as themselves.

My approach to therapy

I am a solution focused, patient first therapist. Lets have a conversation of how you would like your session to look like. Some sessions can be more structured then others, You may be coming to me for one thing, but life happens and I am happy to switch gears to the next topic.

What you can expect from me

I like gathering background information during the 1st session, this sometimes means i'll have you complete surveys right before or in our session as well. I am open to any questions you may have about how your sessions will look like, We will create realistic goals for you to work on that are achievable.
