Welcome, I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. If you’re reading this, it means you’re hoping to find support - and that’s a courageous and meaningful first step. Starting the therapy journey can be a lot at first but you don’t have to navigate it alone. You deserve a caring, non-judgmental space where you're truly heard and supported. Whether you're dealing with relationship stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief or a life transition, my goal is to offer you my presence and compassion as you explore your experience.
My committment to provide a high level of care to clients includes earning a PhD in Martial and Family Therapy, in addition to specialized training in evidence-based practices such Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and Gottman Method Couples Therapy. I have also completed training in Trauma-Informed Care, Somatic Attachment Therapy, and Narrative Therapy.
I approach my work with openness, compassion, and a non-judgmental mindset, placing empathy and curiosity at the heart of everything I do. Whether you are navigating a personal challenge or looking to strengthen your relationships, I am committed to supporting you on your journey towards a more fulfilling and authentic life.
