Do you find yourself putting others’ needs ahead of your own, overthinking decisions, or striving for perfection in school or work? Are stress, self-doubt, or past experiences impacting your relationships or sense of self? You’re not alone—I am here to support you! As a compassionate and dedicated intern therapist, I create a safe, empathetic space so that you feel seen, heard, and empowered. Using a gentle and supportive approach, we will navigate the emotional challenges that come with anxiety, academic pressure, relationships, and life transitions like marriage and child-bearing. I support adults, adolescents and couples.
If you want to thrive, not just survive and lead a more fulfiling authentic life, I can help you navigate emotional regulation, perfectionism, identity loss and relationship stress. Your challenges do not define you—and together, we can explore your strengths, overcome barriers, and move toward personal growth and fulfillment. Take this chance on yourself!
I am also passionate about helping couples reconnect and strengthen emotional bonds, explore deeper feelings, and shift away from patterns that cause disconnection. My goal is to help you foster deeper understanding, empathy, and lasting intimacy in your relationship using evidence-based modalities like emotion-focused therapy. Reach out today!

I often use Emotion-Focused Therapy. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and begin identifying the emotional patterns shaping your experience. EFT helps you become more aware of your emotions, understand their purpose, and express them in healthy, adaptive ways. During treatment, I'll support you in accessing and working through difficult feelings.
