I am a mental health therapist who is dedicated to supporting others on their journey toward balance and lasting wellness. My therapeutic approach is eclectic and tailored to each individual, drawing from a holistic perspective that values the connection between mind, body, and overall well-being.
I bring extensive experience from both inpatient and outpatient settings, providing care to individuals, couples, families and groups. I have also spent years supporting youth and families in schools and through community-based programs.
My goal is to create a safe, welcoming, and empowering environment where clients feel understood, supported, and equipped to thrive as their best selves.
