I work well with adults who feel stressed, overwhelmed, or unsure of their next step. Many are juggling work, relationships, or major changes and want a space to slow down and sort things out. I aim to bring a calm, steady presence and a thoughtful, honest style that helps people feel respected and heard, including LGBTQ+ clients looking for an affirming space. Most people I work with want to feel more grounded and have a clearer sense of direction as they move through their daily lives.
I help people make sense of what’s weighing on them and build practical skills that make daily life feel easier. I bring a calm, organized style with a genuine focus on understanding your perspective. I’m direct when it’s helpful, and grounded when things feel chaotic. Sessions stay collaborative, respectful, and centered on what matters most to you.
Reaching out takes courage, and you deserve a space where you feel understood and treated with care. If you’re ready to explore what you need and work toward meaningful change at a pace that feels right, I’m here to support you. When you’re ready, we can connect and see if it feels like a good fit.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or anxiety related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
