What drives my work is the belief that therapy can help people reclaim their lives—even amid uncertainty, pain, or self-doubt. I support individuals navigating anxiety, OCD, relationship issues, identity development, and life transitions. As an Advanced Grief Counseling Specialist, I also bring deep expertise in grief and loss, including body grief and chronic illness. Whether we’re exploring patterns that no longer serve you or building new ways of coping, I approach therapy as a collaborative, empowering space rooted in dignity, self-determination, and healing.
I have experience supporting the LGBTQ+ community, and I am committed to creating a space that is not just affirming but actively supportive. I also bring a background in working with survivors of intimate partner violence, which shaped my understanding of trauma, resilience, and the importance of fostering safety in the therapeutic relationship.
Outside of the therapy room, I recharge by savoring everyday rituals—my morning coffee, a good book, home-cooked meals, long walks, yoga, and the occasional reality TV binge. These small moments of joy help keep me grounded—and I believe your healing can start with the small things, too.
