I work with individuals from all walks of life who are ready to break free from what’s holding them back and create lasting, positive change. Many come to therapy feeling weighed down by anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, stress, mood disorders, or major life transitions. Others arrive feeling stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure of where to go next. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. Together, we identify the patterns standing in the way of your goals, build effective coping skills, strengthen resilience, and create practical strategies for growth.

A client isn't someone who has everything figured out, it’s someone who is willing to show up, be honest, and engage in the process of change. Therapy works best when there’s a genuine desire to explore emotions, patterns, and challenges, even when that journey feels uncomfortable. Most importantly, You do not need to be “ready” in a perfect way. You can come to therapy feeling lost, hurt, confused, or overwhelmed. What matters is your willingness to take the first step towards healing making positive changes. My goal is to us this safe space support you, challenge you, and explore alternate ways of thinking to achieve growth.

Thinking about your journey in life in terms of how you decided that you were going to do some self-reflecting and self-care required you to be open and honest, which is an important step and takes courage.

Using a strength perspective model and client/therapist collaborative approach, sessions are geared towards individuals’ goals regarding specific mental health needs.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve spent a long time being strong for others, pushing through pain, or feeling misunderstood. I believe therapy works best when it feels real, collaborative, and safe enough for honesty (even the messy parts). My style is warm, affirming, and direct. I balance compassion with gentle challenge, humor when appropriate, and a strong belief in your ability to grow. I don’t believe in shaming or “fixing” people, my goal is to help you better understand yourself, break unhelpful patterns, and build a life that feels more aligned and sustainable.

Intervention Therapists
How does an intervention work?
An intervention is a planned, structured meeting in which a person’s family or friends voice concerns about the person’s behavior and its consequences; the goal is for the person to accept treatment. In this meeting, the person’s loved ones (often with the guidance of a trained interventionist) share how the person’s behavior has harmed them and the consequences if the person refuses treatment. They collectively ask the person to accept a proposed treatment plan.

How effective are interventions?
There isn’t extensive research on the efficacy of interventions, in part because success is difficult to measure. Individuals often enter addiction treatment after an intervention, for example, but treatment itself may not work, especially if the person only begins due to external pressure from others rather than due to internal motivation to change. However, if all other attempts at helping someone have failed, an intervention may be worth exploring.

What are the limitations of interventions?
While a friend or family member’s intentions are in the right place in wanting to help a loved one through an intervention, there are significant limitations to the approach. The surprising nature of the event can make the person feel ambushed or judged. They may feel embarrassed or ashamed as a result, and relationships may be strained or broken. This can make it difficult for the individual to be receptive to the concerns of their loved ones and the interventionist.

Are there alternatives to interventions?
Rather than confronting a loved one through an intervention, an effective and less pressured approach is to create space for a caring, open, one-on-one conversation. This works best if the loved one asks open-ended questions, listens attentively to the answers, and frames their observations and statements with concern rather than judgment. More than one conversation may be needed, but change can take root over time.
