Welcome to the therapy community, I’m so glad you’re here. In this safe and supportive space, we'll work together to explore your thoughts, emotions, and goals. I believe in a person centered approach where you are the expert. I’m here to assist you in navigating life's challenges, fostering growth, building skill, and achieving lasting well-being. Your journey towards healing and self-discovery begins here.
I specialize in helping those who have depression, anxiety, PTSD, and ADHD. I also provide family therapy. I use and have been trained in several different evidenced practices such as CBT, DBT, ACT, and motivational interviewing.
In times of uncertainty or distress, reaching out for support is an act of courage. Your feelings are valid, and seeking therapy is a powerful step towards understanding and healing. I’m here to walk beside you on your journey. Your well-being is my priority, and I am ready to support you every step of the way while meeting you where you’re at in life.

I use a combination of different therapies depending on your needs. In the first session we will explore what brought you to therapy and your life experiences. After that we will curate the perfect goals to meet your needs. While we will make therapy fun at times, we will also work hard together to push through unwanted thoughts and feelings.
