As a young athlete, I became fascinated by how mindset could make or break my performance. That curiosity grew into a lifelong commitment to personal growth and led me to earn a Master’s in Counseling. Today, I am a certified TEAM-CBT therapist, trained in the evidence-based approach developed by Dr. David Burns at Stanford. TEAM-CBT combines empathy, agenda-setting, and powerful methods to create measurable progress. I continue to receive weekly advanced training with Dr. Burns to stay at the forefront of the latest tools and techniques. My focus is on helping clients achieve the goals most meaningful to them.
Therapy with me is collaborative and focused only on the areas that matter most to you. I use an approach that blends empathy with proven methods. Each session is structured to track your progress and ensure you’re getting real relief—not just talking in circles. Together we’ll use powerful tools to help you reduce symptoms quickly and create lasting change.
Reaching out for help can feel scary—but it’s also a brave first step toward healing. In our work, you’ll find warmth, honesty, and a space to feel seen, understood, and supported just as you are.
