Meaningful change begins with one safe, genuine conversation at a time.
My clinical background comes from inpatient and forensic settings, where I worked extensively with adults experiencing complex trauma, personality disorders, and co‑occurring mental health and substance use concerns. Through that experience, I learned the power of patience, structure, and compassion—meeting each person exactly where they are while helping them grow at a steady, natural pace.
Today, I bring that same blend of empathy and clinical precision to individual therapy for adults coping with addiction, stress, or major life transitions. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness‑based practices to support you in building awareness, emotional resilience, and self‑acceptance.
I offer referral‑based groups and supportive community resources for clients seeking deeper connection in recovery. If you’re ready to rediscover your balance and move forward mindfully, I’d be honored to support you on your journey.
