I help women explore and define their dating identity while building the confidence to navigate relationships authentically. Through assertiveness and boundary-setting skills, I empower clients to communicate their needs clearly and confidently. I also provide psychoeducation on relationships of all kinds, helping clients better understand themselves and their connections with others.

I’m especially passionate about supporting and affirming clients with complex or multicultural identities. My favorite part of this work is helping clients strengthen their self-esteem so they can move through the world with greater confidence and self-acceptance. Whether we’re destigmatizing sexuality, challenging body image myths, or building a stronger sense of self, I love seeing clients thrive with pride in who they are and the knowledge to carry them forward.

I am a compassionate, approachable, and nonjudgmental therapist who strives to create a safe and supportive environment for every client. During our first session, I make it a priority to emphasize that therapy is a space free from judgment and blame. As human beings, we all experience challenges, setbacks, and mistakes throughout our lives, and I believe these experiences are a natural part of personal growth.

While I serve in the role of therapist, I do not view myself as superior to those I work with. Instead, I value collaboration, mutual respect, and authenticity in the therapeutic relationship. I believe that meaningful progress occurs when clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to take an active role in their treatment.

Honesty and transparency are central to my practice. Together, we will develop individualized goals that reflect your unique needs, values, and aspirations rather than pursuing a predetermined or "easy" path. I recognize that no one has all the answers, and I am committed to being honest when I do not know something. In those instances, I will make every effort to seek out accurate information and resources to best support your growth and well-being.

My goal is to work alongside you as a partner in your journey, helping you build the skills, insight, and confidence needed to create meaningful and lasting change.

Therapist

Finding the right therapist is about finding a balance between someone who truly "gets" it and someone who can help you map out the way forward. With over a decade of experience navigating the complexities of the school system—from the classroom to the counseling office and special education therapy—I’ve dedicated my career to being both a safe harbor and a catalyst for growth. My approach is rooted in deep empathy, but I am also firmly goal-oriented. Whether we are navigating a specific diagnosis or a difficult life transition, I believe that therapy should provide you with both a sense of peace and a clear sense of direction.

Areas of Expertise & Passion

Children & Adolescents: I spent ten years working with students facing a wide range of challenges, including autism, anxiety, oppositional defiance disorder (ODD), and emotional disturbances. I understand the unique pressures of the school environment and am passionate about helping kids find their footing and flourish.

Young Adults: The transition into adulthood can feel like navigating without a map. I help young adults build the confidence they need to define their own version of success and tackle the "what comes next" with resilience.

Mothers & Postpartum Support: Motherhood is a profound transformation, often accompanied by overwhelming stressors. I provide a supportive space for postpartum moms and those juggling the relentless demands of family life to find balance, reclaim their identity, and prioritize their mental well-being.

My philosophy: I believe every individual deserves a space where they are fully seen and heard. My mission is to provide that safety while empowering you to reach the milestones that matter most to you.If you’re looking for a partner in your journey toward growth—or a steady hand for your child—I’m here to help. Let’s get to work.
