Great to meet you!

Struggling with addiction, anxiety, trauma, or feeling disconnected from yourself? You do not have to figure it all out alone. I bring both professional experience and lived experience to therapy, including four years of sobriety and an ongoing commitment to recovery in different areas of my life. I understand that healing is not always a straight line, and I want you to feel seen, understood, and supported without fear of judgment.

My approach to therapy

I believe in ikigai, a Japanese concept meaning “a reason for being,” and the power of finding purpose in what you love and how you serve your community. I bring this belief into therapy by helping you explore your strengths, build resilience, and reconnect with what matters most. Whether you are navigating addiction, ADHD, trauma, depression, men's issues, or relationship challenges, we will work together to find a path that feels meaningful to you.

What you can expect from me

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you have struggled to find someone who truly understands your experiences. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment free space where you can show up as yourself and share at your own pace. We will discuss what brings you to therapy, what you hope to change, and what support looks like for you. You do not need all the answers to begin. We will figure things out together.
