Growth is possible, and the right relationship makes all the difference. I specialize in working with adults navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, and life transitions, as well as couples working to rebuild trust, communication, and emotional connection. Drawing from CBT, ACT, and DBT, my approach is tailored to the unique needs and goals of each person or couple I work with. At the heart of what I do is a genuine belief that the therapeutic relationship itself is one of the most powerful forces for change.

I sincerely believe that each of us is born into this world deserving of happiness, safety, and love. For some of us, the road to emotional wellness can be impacted by forces and experiences beyond our control. At times, we can lose sight of the beauty life has to offer us due to potential trauma, family history, or hardships we’ve experienced. My goal is to help you uncover, rediscover, and reclaim the joy and purpose in your life through compassionate, welcoming, and conversational counseling services.

I specialize in helping adults and older adults navigate anxiety, ADHD, people-pleasing, and relationship challenges. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed by overthinking, stuck in self-doubt, or drained from constantly putting others first—and they’re ready for real, lasting change.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in practical tools that support meaningful growth—in and outside of sessions.
