Life can feel overwhelming—whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, or the challenges of being neurodivergent in a world that often misunderstands you. You may feel stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. I welcome both teens and adults who are looking for relief, clarity, and connection. You may be hoping to better understand yourself, feel more in control of your emotions, or simply find a space where you don’t have to explain everything. Here, you can just be—and begin healing, one step at a time.
I offer person-centered, trauma-informed care using CBT and strength-based approaches tailored to each individual. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence, and substance use. Whether you’re exploring recovery or looking to better manage emotions, I’ll meet you with compassion and flexibility.
You don’t have to do this alone. I know how hard it can be to take the first step—and I’m here to meet you with warmth, acceptance, and support. Therapy with me is collaborative and affirming. If you’re ready to feel seen, heard, and supported on your path toward healing, I invite you to reach out.
