Congratulations on taking the first step to improve your mental health! It is important to me, as a therapist, that you feel comfortable in a therapeutic relationship and that you feel heard. No one knows more about your life and experiences than you do! We will be able to work collaboratively to help you take the next steps to reach your goals and feel heard in a safe place. Therapy is not a "one and done" experience, and my goal is to provide the necessary tools, resources, and skills to help you thrive based on your individual needs. I look forward to working with you through this healing process.

Healing from the painful life experiences that impact us all is a process that should not be undertaken in isolation. I would be honored to journey alongside you as you navigate this difficult season of life. As a relational therapist, I believe that our stories begin and end in the community. We cannot understand your current life space without considering the family, society, and culture that have shaped your world. I am an emotionally focused, trained therapist who utilizes a systemic, attachment-based, and culturally conscious approach to therapy. I believe that therapy works best when everyone can be authentically themselves. That's why I strive to create a safe environment where you can show up exactly as you are without fear of judgment. I also value humor in therapy when appropriate because laughter can be another piece of that healing. I look forward to the work we will do together!

If you’re seeking change—whether it's breaking old patterns, managing overwhelming emotions, or creating a life that feels more aligned and fulfilling—you’re in the right place. I work with individuals motivated to grow and ready to move forward, even if they’re unsure where to start. My practice is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients understand and shift the patterns of thinking and behavior that may be keeping them stuck. In addition to CBT, I use an integrative approach that draws from various evidence-based practices tailored to each person’s unique needs. This allows us to address challenges not just cognitively, but also emotionally and holistically—supporting healing and growth on multiple levels. I meet each client where they are, offering a supportive and nonjudgmental space to explore what’s holding them back and what’s possible. Together, we’ll clarify your goals, develop tools for coping and healing, and uncover the direction and sense of purpose you’ve been searching for. My goal is to help you maximize your potential, gain insight, and move toward the wellness and wholeness you deserve.

"It's not about what it is, it's about what it can become." One of my favorite quotes from Dr. Seuss; his wise words sum up my approach to working with any client, from preschool age to midlife. I believe in transparency and client empowerment; YOU are the one who decides what your goals are. My hope and my goal are to help you work through whatever obstacles you may face and develop a roadmap for success. With several years of experience in trauma therapy, I believe in establishing a safe environment, and I promise all of my clients that their voices will be heard. I look forward to working with you and discovering what can become of the journey we take together!

I am passionate about helping people uncover their strengths and navigate life’s challenges with compassion and understanding. I take pride in building meaningful, collaborative relationships with my clients. My approach to counseling is client-centered and trauma-informed, blending tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, interpersonal therapy, and mindfulness to meet each client's unique needs. I believe in a whole-body approach to mental health, recognizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and emotions in the healing process. I value connection and find witnessing my clients’ resilience and growth deeply rewarding. I have worked with adolescents and adults navigating a variety of concerns, including eating disorders, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. No matter the concern, my goal is to create a warm, non-judgmental space where clients feel empowered to share their stories and create meaningful change.
