Starting therapy is a big step, and it’s completely normal to feel unsure or even a little overwhelmed. You don’t have to have everything figured out before you begin—just showing up is enough. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and respected from the very first conversation. I work with teens, adults, and couples who may be navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress, or feeling “stuck.” Whether you’re facing something specific or just know that something doesn’t feel quite right, we can work together to better understand what you’re experiencing and find meaningful ways to move forward.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to you. I believe that you are the expert of your own life. My role is to support you with tools, insight, and encouragement. I draw from evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused techniques, while also focusing on building a genuine, trusting relationship.
In our work together, you can expect a nonjudgmental environment where your thoughts and feelings are valued. We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you, celebrating progress while also making space for challenges. You deserve support, understanding, and a place where you can truly be yourself.

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.
