I’m grateful to work with people who are brave enough to say, “I can’t do this on my own anymore.” Most of my clients are adults and families who feel like they’re spinning their wheels—caught in patterns of stress or sadness that make each day feel like a struggle. Whether you’re navigating a major life transition or dealing with old wounds that refuse to stay buried, I understand how exhausting it can be to keep up appearances. If you’ve reached the point where you’re done just surviving and ready to truly heal, I’m here to help.
I specialize in working collaboratively and tailoring my approach. I draw from evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and EMDR-informed work to help clients better understand their emotions, recognize unhelpful patterns, and develop practical tools to support real and lasting change.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you have been carrying things on your own for a long time. I aim to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and understood without judgment. If you are feeling ready to explore what change might look like for you, I would be glad to support you in that process.
