I work with adults, children, teens, and couples on a wide range of emotional and relationship challenges. My clients often come to therapy seeking understanding, clarity, and growth in areas such as communication, anxiety, depression, or family dynamics. I specialize in guiding young women and teens who struggle with body image, eating disorders, and self-harm as well as adults experiencing PTSD and trauma. I believe that therapy should feel supportive, collaborative, and focused on helping you build skills and process emotions that lead to lasting change and a more balanced, fulfilling life.
I use evidence-based approaches to help clients gain insight and develop practical skills. As a Gottman (level 2) couples therapist, I help couples reconnect and resolve conflicts. Whether we are working on communication, managing stress, or improving relationships, I strive to meet you where you are and guide you toward meaningful, sustainable progress.
Reaching out for help takes courage, and it is the first step toward feeling better. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can be open, feel supported, and start moving forward. If you are ready to begin your journey toward greater confidence and well-being, Please reach out to connect with me.

I use different treatment modalities to meet each individual's needs. My therapy approaches are strongly rooted in ACT, CBT, DBT, Gottman Method, and ERP. Sometimes an eclectic (a mix of different types of therapy) stance will be integrated if that best serves you and the issues you are facing.
