It is no secret that life can be hard. The good news is that you don’t have to handle it on your own. Together, we can work towards creating a life that makes you happy and brings you peace. I would describe my therapeutic style as genuine, accepting, and honest. I am a strengths-based person-centered therapist. I will use a personalized approach to find the best therapy that fits your needs. Clients who get the most out of working with me are motivated toward self-awareness and optimistic that change and healing can happen.
I have had the honor of working in the health system since 2017 supporting those going through major life changes. I have experience working with grief and loss, trauma, depression and anxiety, new diagnosis or chronic illnesses, life transitions, and relational stressors.
I would love to provide you the space where you feel valued, supported, and listened to. It would be an honor to hear your story and guide you through this healing journey. Feel free to schedule an appointment or reach out via phone or email.

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.
