Maybe you've lost someone and don't know how to live inside that loss. Maybe a diagnosis changed everything, or a transition left you unsure of who you are now. Maybe you just feel stuck — and can't quite explain why. Whatever brought you here, therapy with me is a space where you don't have to have it figured out. You don't have to minimize what you're feeling or arrive with the right words. You just have to show up. We'll figure out the rest together — at your pace, in your voice, toward a version of healing that's actually yours.

I specialize in grief, anxiety, life transitions, and psychosocial cancer care for adults 18+. I'm trained in EMDR and draw on CBT and humanistic approaches — tailored to what you actually need, not a preset protocol. My goal is lasting emotional growth, not just better coping.

Your voice leads here — always. I walk beside you, not ahead of you. Whether you're carrying a heavy heart or searching for clarity, bring your full self. Reach out today to schedule a call and take the first step toward something that finally feels like your own.
