If you’re looking for someone who combines real conversation with clinical expertise, you’re in the right place. My style is simple: I listen, I care, and I help you figure things out at a pace that feels right for you.
Life can get messy. Sometimes you just need a space where you can drop the mask, say what’s really going on, and not be judged for it. In our work together, we’ll talk honestly about what’s getting in the way and find practical ways to help you feel more like you again.
I believe therapy should feel safe, real, and human. You don’t need to have the perfect words or a big plan — just a willingness to start.
In our virtual sessions, you’ll find a safe, supportive space to speak openly without judgment. Together, we’ll ease anxiety and stress, heal from grief or trauma, navigate life transitions, and move forward from depression, burnout, bipolar disorder, borderline personality traits, OCD, and other mental health challenges.
I’ll meet you where you are and walk alongside you as you move toward the life you want to live.
If you want a counselor who genuinely cares and helps you make real change, I’d love to work with you.
Real talk. Real care. Real change.
