I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and life transitions. My approach is integrative, adapting strategies to fit each person’s unique needs and goals. Therapy is a collaborative process where we explore your thoughts,emotions and needs, while focusing on building strengths to foster resilience and growth. Whether you’re coping with challenging emotions, past trauma, or seeking personal development, I’m here to provide compassionate support and practical tools for moving forward.
I help adults and teens navigate anxiety, depression, grief and life transitions with empathy and evidence-based care. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectical techniques with mindfulness and a deep respect for your unique story.
