Whether you’re confronting depression, anxiety, addiction, shame, life transitions, or another form of suffering, I believe that therapy should be a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move toward a more connected and meaningful life.
I work from a trauma-informed, collaborative foundation that centers your values and lived experience. My approach draws upon mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed practices, all tailored to meet your unique goals.
Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just ready for change, I'm here to walk with you as you reconnect with what matters most.
