Great to meet you!

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, difficult relationships, anger, or major life changes begin to affect how you feel and function. You may feel stuck, emotionally exhausted, misunderstood, or unsure how to move forward. I work with teens, adults, and seniors (65+) in a supportive, judgement-free space where you can feel heard, build on your strengths, develop healthier coping skills, and move forward with greater confidence and balance.

My approach to therapy

With more than eight years of experience as a school psychologist and therapist, I use person-centered, trauma-informed care, strengths-based, solution-focused, mindfulness, and other evidence-based approaches. We'll explore what brings you to therapy, your experiences, strengths, and goals. Together, we'll identify patterns, build practical coping skills, and develop strategies to manage emotions, navigate challenges, and create meaningful change.

What you can expect from me

You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Sometimes you simply need a safe space to feel heard, supported, and understood without judgment. Whether you're working through the past, facing challenges today, or preparing for what's next, I'll meet you where you are. When you're ready, I welcome the opportunity to support you.
