Therapy is a space for growth, building resilience, and learning how to handle life’s ups and downs. Whether you’re trying to find calm in the middle of chaos, navigate a big life change, make sense of your emotions, or just figure out what’s next, I’m here to support you. I work to create a safe, comfortable space where you can show up as yourself and feel heard without judgment. By being genuine and honest in our work together, I aim to build a trusting relationship that helps you feel supported every step of the way.
I’m DBT-trained and trauma-informed, with experience supporting neurodivergent folks and people in the LGBTQ+ community. I strive to offer care that’s affirming, culturally aware, and centered around who you are as a person.
I bring a lot of warmth—and a little humor—into my work to help you feel comfortable and at ease. Your mental well-being really matters, and I’m here to support you as you work toward what’s important to you. If you’re curious about therapy with me, let’s connect and see if it feels like a good fit.
