My ideal clients include people of all ages, stages of life, and identities, though I have extensive experience working with adolescents, teens, and young adults. Many come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by anxiety, stress, identity questions, perfectionism, or life transitions, and unsure how to move forward on their own. I also support clients exploring faith, spirituality, and family upbringing in a nonjudgmental space. I meet clients with warmth and collaboration so they feel understood and supported as we begin making sense of what they are carrying.
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and a client-centered, talk therapy approach to help clients understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we build insight, reduce overwhelm, and develop practical coping skills. My approach is warm, collaborative, and paced to your comfort, supporting meaningful change.
Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you’ve been carrying things on your own for a long time. You don’t need to have everything figured out before beginning. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for support, I would be honored to connect with you and walk alongside you as you take the next step.

My approach is collaborative and client-centered, and I tailor treatment to your needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. I draw from CBT, mindfulness, compassion-focused, person-centered, and strength-based approaches to help you better understand your thoughts, emotions, and patterns, while also building practical tools you can use in everyday life.
