Therapist

I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience specializing in integrating elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and somatic approaches when they best serve the client’s needs.

Clients often tell me they feel safe exploring difficult emotions here, and that I bring both depth and lightness to the work. I’m especially experienced with:

  • Depression and anxiety in adolescents, and adults
  • Family and Couples dynamics and parenting challenges
  • Identity, self-esteem, and life transitions

I work with individuals, teens, and parents who want to understand themselves more deeply and build stronger, more authentic connections.
