Great to meet you!

I work with young adults to mid-40's, who are navigating trauma, grief, PTSD, and major life transitions. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, lonely, or disconnected as they work through family divorce, peer stress, breakups, loss, cultural family differences, life transitions, or the uncertainty that can come with college, adulthood, or aging out of foster care. I help clients build support, process difficult experiences, and feel more grounded in themselves as they move through painful or uncertain seasons of life.

If you are a mental health professional needing services, I also have the experience in providing mental health support to helpers and service providers like yourself. The service I offer is not for clinical supervision for licensure but rather providing your own mental health support as you continue to help your clients.

My approach to therapy

Together, we focus on insight, coping skills, and meaningful, lasting change. I help clients process trauma, manage grief, strengthen self-esteem, and build healthier ways to cope with stress, loneliness, and life transitions.

My approach is warm, supportive, and trauma-informed. I work to create a space where clients can better understand what they are carrying and begin moving forward with more clarity and confidence.

What you can expect from me

In the first session, we’ll talk through what has been going on, what feels most important right now, and what kind of support would feel most helpful. We’ll begin identifying the experiences, stressors, or losses that may be affecting you and start building a plan that feels manageable and clear.

My goal is for the first session to feel supportive, grounded, and useful.
