My goal as a therapist is to provide a supportive space where you can process life’s challenges, gain clarity, and create meaningful change from within. I work with adults and teens who are navigating life transitions, mood disorders, anxiety, and relationship concerns. I also support individuals experiencing PTSD, grief, anger, substance use, disabilities, self-esteem struggles, and spiritual concerns.
I provide psychodynamic (talk) therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy and other techniques as needed to best support you. Before becoming a therapist, I provided social services for teens & adults with criminal records, fueling my commitment to second chances, resilience, and helping others move forward.
Together, we’ll build greater awareness of your thoughts, emotions, and patterns while developing practical skills to navigate obstacles and create healthier ways of coping and relating. Therapy is a collaborative process, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be honored to support you on your journey.
