With a deep-rooted passion for human connection and well-being, I have dedicated my life to supporting individuals on their path to self-discovery and healing. I have had the privilege of working with diverse individuals, and I've come to understand that while each person's journey is unique, we all share the universal need for understanding and compassion. In our sessions, you'll find a judgment-free zone where every emotion, thought, and experience is welcomed.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in the belief that every individual carries within them the potential for growth and transformation. By integrating a variety of techniques tailored to your specific needs, we'll collaboratively explore the intricacies of your inner world. Emphasizing the power of empathy, active listening, and genuine care, my goal is to empower you to reconnect with your authentic self, navigate life's challenges, and cultivate a life of meaning and purpose. Remember, therapy is a partnership, and I'm here to support, guide, and bear witness to your journey, celebrating every milestone along the way. Your well-being is my utmost priority, and together, we'll pave a path toward healing and self-discovery.

My dedication to helping others was shaped by formative life experiences and deepened through both personal growth and professional development. A pivotal moment was my service as a medic in the military, which solidified my commitment to supporting others in times of crisis and vulnerability. Since then, I’ve held diverse roles and spent years supporting individuals facing complex life challenges, each experience deepening my understanding of human resilience and strengthening my dedication to the helping profession. I’ve supported individuals across the lifespan through trauma, grief, mental health concerns, life transitions, legal system involvement, and other impactful stressors.
My education and clinical experience have honed my therapeutic skills, broadened my perspective, and deepened my empathy—enabling me to empower others while continuing my own growth. Through this journey, I’ve aligned strongly with an Adlerian approach, emphasizing holistic, goal-oriented care, social connectedness, and the belief that every individual can realize their potential. This framework integrates evidence-based practices to promote wellness and meaningful change. As Alfred Adler noted, “Courage is the willingness to be imperfect.”
In therapy, I create a space where individuals can embrace vulnerability, develop self-awareness, and move toward growth with compassion rather than self-judgment. I believe that fostering courage and connection allows clients to recognize their strengths, engage authentically in change, and cultivate lasting well-being.
