Great to meet you!

I specialize in working with adults who are ready to break free from the relationship patterns, anxiety, burnout, and self-doubt that keep them feeling stuck. Many of my clients are high-achieving professionals who appear confident on the outside while privately struggling with people-pleasing, perfectionism, difficulty setting boundaries, or feeling disconnected in their relationships.

Using a collaborative and compassionate approach, I help clients understand how past experiences and attachment patterns continue to influence their present-day emotions, relationships, and sense of self. I integrate EMDR, CBT, psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness to support healing at both the emotional and nervous system level—not just symptom management.

Whether you’re navigating a major life transition, recovering from relational trauma, processing grief, or wanting healthier, more secure relationships, therapy can help you develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and confidence. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel understood, challenged, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, drawing from evidence-based therapies including CBT, EMDR, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. I believe healing begins with a strong therapeutic relationship, and I look forward to supporting you as you work toward becoming the healthiest version of yourself

What you can expect from me

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin building a strong therapeutic relationship. We’ll talk about what’s been on your mind, what challenges you’ve been carrying, and what you hope to gain from therapy. I’ll ask thoughtful questions to better understand your experiences, strengths, and goals while creating a space where you feel comfortable sharing at your own pace. Together, we’ll identify a direction that feels right for you and begin creating a plan that supports your healing and personal growth
