Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you are already feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of where to begin. My goal is to make that first step a little easier by creating a space where you feel safe, heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating Trauma/PTSD, anxiety/OCD, depression, grief and loss, and other difficult seasons of life. You do not need to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. Whether you know exactly what you want to work on or simply know that something needs to change, we can start there.

I believe you know yourself best, and I see my role as walking alongside you as you work toward greater understanding, healing, and emotional well-being. Outside of therapy, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our cats, and the people I love. I also enjoy being outdoors, baking, and finding joy in the simple things. I bring that same genuine and down-to-earth approach into my work with clients.

My approach to therapy is compassionate, collaborative, and individualized. I believe therapy should be a partnership, not a one-size-fits-all process. Together, we will explore what you are experiencing, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and work toward changes that feel meaningful to you.

I use evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches and tailor treatment to each client's needs and goals. Depending on what is most helpful, I may incorporate EMDR, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, Motivational Interviewing, DBT-informed strategies, and solution-focused techniques.

I believe therapy can be both supportive and challenging. My goal is to create a space where you feel accepted for where you are while also feeling encouraged to grow. I want you to leave therapy with greater insight, practical tools, and confidence in your ability to navigate life's challenges.

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin understanding what brings you to therapy. We will talk about what you have been experiencing, what has been difficult, and what you hope to get out of therapy.

You do not need to have the perfect words or know exactly where to begin. Starting therapy can feel uncomfortable, and I will meet you where you are. I will ask questions to better understand your experiences while giving you space to share what feels most important to you.

We will begin identifying goals and discussing what you would like therapy to look like moving forward. Most importantly, I want you to feel heard, respected, and comfortable being yourself. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is important to me, and our first session is the beginning of that process.
