As a dedicated Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, with 7 years in the field as an outpatient therapist, I am deeply committed to fostering an environment of trust and support for my clients. You’ve been through a lot—maybe more than most people know. You’ve held everything together for everyone else, often at the cost of your own peace. Now, you’re ready to heal, set boundaries, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that got lost along the way.I specialize in working with people navigating trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and toxic relationship dynamics. My approach is compassionate, real, and focused on helping you
My approach is rooted in compassion and empathy. I strive to create a safe space where you can openly share your experiences without fear of judgment. Together, we will work collaboratively to explore the unique challenges you face, develop coping strategies, and cultivate resilience. My goal is to empower you to regain control over your life.
I believe that every individual is unique, and the therapeutic process should reflect that. By utilizing evidence-based techniques tailored to your specific needs, I aim to guide you toward a deeper understanding of yourself and enhance your overall well-being. Thank you for considering me as your partner in this transformative journey.

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.
