Great to meet you!

I am a licensed psychotherapist specializing in trauma recovery and relationship counseling, bringing 24 years of private practice experience to my clients. My mission is to help individuals, couples, and families heal emotional wounds, master communication skills, and bridge the gaps necessary to build healthy, lasting connections. My background includes extensive early clinical experience in hospital and outpatient clinic settings, equipping me to guide clients through complex psychological and emotional challenges.

My approach to therapy

By bringing nonjudgmental curiosity and an open mind to every session, I blend evidence-based therapeutic practices with a deeply safe and supportive environment dedicated to your growth and healing. I am certified in EMDR (trauma therapy) and Imago Relationship Therapy (IRT).

What you can expect from me

The initial session is a collaborative process designed to gather your background history, understand your current challenges, and clarify your goals for therapy.
