Great to meet you!

I am a warm, down-to-earth therapist who is passionate about helping others grow and move toward the life they want. I genuinely enjoy working with clients and supporting them through challenges, whether they’re facing difficult emotions, past trauma, or major life transitions. With a background in trauma therapy, I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, understood, and supported. My goal is to help you build insight, develop effective coping strategies, and feel empowered in your journey forward.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is client-centered and adaptable, focusing on meeting each individual where they are in the moment. I strive to create a supportive and comfortable therapeutic environment while balancing active listening with thoughtful challenge when it’s clinically appropriate. I believe in empowering clients to develop their own insight and identify solutions that are meaningful and sustainable for them. My role is to guide and support that process while fostering a strong, collaborative therapeutic relationship.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a welcoming and relaxed environment where we begin getting to know each other. I’ll ask questions to better understand your concerns, background, and what brings you to therapy, while also giving you space to share at your own pace. We’ll start identifying your goals and what you’d like to get out of our work together. You can also ask any questions you have, so you feel comfortable and confident moving forward.
