Great to meet you!

Everyone has a story to tell, and I am here to help you navigate life’s nuanced complexities and challenges. As a relational psychotherapist, I understand how unresolved trauma and loss can leave you feeling wounded, alone, grief stricken, ashamed, or stuck. I offer a nurturing, nonjudgmental, and safe space where you can feel seen and heard, begin to heal, and build resiliency so you do not have to carry it all by yourself.

My approach to therapy

I practice from an eclectic, relational therapeutic approach because I know treatment must be individualized. I draw from a variety of theoretical perspectives to create a customized plan that fits your unique needs, history, and goals. Together we will explore what is happening in your life right now, the experiences that shaped you, and the strengths you already have but may not fully see yet.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a warm, welcoming environment where people of all ages are treated with respect and care. I will invite you to share what brings you to therapy at your own pace so you feel emotionally secure and supported. We will begin clarifying your goals, answer any questions you may have, and talk through what ongoing work together could look like so you leave feeling understood and less alone.
