My approach to therapy

I address mood issues, boundaries, life change, digital detox, GLP-1 lifestyle support changes, career and family planning as well as adult launching.

What you can expect from me

I use a mix of trauma-informed care, play therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy, somatic and holistic healing. My approach is flexible, collaborative, and tailored to each person's needs—whether we're building coping skills, processing emotions, or working toward meaningful change.
