If you’re ready to feel more balanced, in control, and supported, you’re in the right place. I specialize in helping adults (18+) navigate life’s challenges through personalized, compassionate care.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. During treatment, I'll help you learn about emotion intensity, how to self regulate and reframe negative thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
