My experience has made me passionate about meeting clients where they are in life, with a special focus on early development and supporting growth through every stage. In our time together, we'll explore what’s brought you here, work toward your goals, and build skills that can make a difference far beyond our sessions.
I approach therapy with empathy and curiosity, recognizing that every person is unique. While I can’t claim expertise in every difference or experience, I bring an open mind and specialized training in EMDR and TF-CBT to help navigate life’s challenges.
Ultimately, I see people as people—complex, ever-evolving, and capable of incredible growth. Our work will adapt to your needs and direction, knowing life and self-awareness are constantly shifting. My goal is to provide support and tools that truly resonate with you.
