Hello, and welcome. Whether you’re seeking therapy or working toward clinical licensure, taking this step takes courage — and you don’t have to do it alone.
I value genuine connection and strive to create a space that is safe, transparent, and supportive. Growth can feel uncomfortable at times, but it’s often where meaningful change begins. My role is to walk alongside you as you move toward your goals at your own pace.
In both therapy and supervision, I use an integrative, evidence-based approach tailored to your needs.
I offer a free 15-minute consultation so you can decide if I’m the right fit for you.
I use an integrative, evidence-based approach grounded in the therapeutic relationship. I support adults with anxiety, depression, ADHD challenges, life transitions, substance use, and burnout. In supervision, I help clinicians build confidence, clinical judgment, and readiness for licensure. Services are provided virtually.
Thank you for considering me to be part of your journey. Reaching out can feel hard, and it’s okay to take your time. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so you can ask questions and see if we feel like a good fit. Your growth — personally and professionally — truly matters here.
