Great to meet you!

Work demands don't pause when life gets hard. If you are navigating a transition, workplace stress, or the lasting weight of grief or trauma while still showing up for work and family, you already know how exhausting this is.

I am interested in helping you navigate these life transitions. I run a small, focused practice with evening and weekend availability, designed for working professionals and academic students. My background spans community health, trauma-informed care, and research.

My approach to therapy

I am warm, collaborative and practical. I specialize in brief, goal-oriented treatment designed to help you build sustainable coping skills through an integrative approach that combines trauma-informed evidence-based strategies (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, narrative therapy, and solution-focused therapy). You will learn tools to help you manage hard emotions, speak up for yourself, and feel less overwhelmed.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, we will discuss your goals for our work together and explore your current symptoms, stressors, and what brought you to therapy. Together we will identify practical, actionable strategies to help you manage difficult emotions. Over time, most clients feel less overwhelmed and more in control, with tools they can reach for when things get hard.
