If you're feeling stuck in challenging relationship dynamics, having a calm, supportive space to process and gain clarity can make all the difference. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, I offer unbiased guidance and practical tools to help strengthen connection, improve communication, and set healthy boundaries. You deserve fulfilling relationships—both with yourself and those you love most.
Therapy can be a powerful tool for positive change, no matter where you are in life.
Through 10 years of experience & professional training, I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based therapeutic approaches. I believe therapy should be tailored to each individual & couple—it’s not one-size-fits-all. You’re the expert on your life, and I’m here to help. My approach integrates psychodynamic, client-centered, and existential techniques.
Let’s connect. I know that initial contact can be the toughest part. Book a free consultation, and we’ll talk about what you’re hoping to gain from therapy. From there, we’ll create a safe, collaborative space that supports your growth and helps you move toward the change you want.
