You are seeking a space where you can heal, grow, and build confidence. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, or feeling stuck and overwhelmed, you deserve support that honors your whole being. As both a therapist and a yoga instructor, I integrate mindfulness-based techniques and a holistic approach that connects mind, body, and spirit. In our work together, we will explore your emotions in a safe and compassionate environment, using movement, breathwork, and mindfulness to cultivate clarity, resilience, and inner peace. You deserve to feel empowered and understood as you move toward your best version.
I specialize in person-centered therapy, mindfulness practices, sound healing, and other evidence-base practices. My approach is tailored to your unique needs, whether you're struggling with self-esteem, managing stress, or seeking emotional balance. I work with teens and adults, supporting self-discovery and confidence building in an LGBTQ+ friendly space.
Seeking help takes strength, and you don’t have to do it alone. I strive to create a compassionate, supportive space for growth and healing. Because quality care shouldn’t be limited by insurance, reach out to discuss reduced self-pay rates for virtual sessions and take charge of your mental health journey on your own terms.

I like to use a person-centered approach. I think it takes understanding where a client is in their life and expanding from there. I use a variety of techniques, including CBT to help identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. I also work with mindfulness based techniques to promote self-growth. I am also a advocate for men's mental health.
