Managed by Rula Health. Your call or email may go to a representative.
I help individuals navigate anxiety, trauma, addiction, and life transitions through a compassionate and collaborative approach. My work is grounded in evidence-based practices like CBT, Trauma-Informed and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, tailored to meet each person where they are. I believe healing happens when people feel seen, heard, and supported, and that’s exactly what I aim to offer in our work together.
My communication style is calm, empathetic, and client-led. I create a space where clients feel heard, accepted, and free to express themselves without judgment. Using a Rogerian, client-centered approach, I reflect thoughtfully and follow the client’s pace, offering support and presence rather than direction or pressure.
I collaborate with clients to identify meaningful goals and create a clear, realistic path toward them using cognitive therapy and behavioral activation methods. Together, we track progress and adjust as needed, using evidence-based methods and a pace that respects each person’s readiness.

I work best with individuals who are navigating the psychological impact of trauma, chronic stress, or longstanding mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, or mood instability. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by their past or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. My approach is steady, compassionate, and clinically grounded.
