Life can be a lot sometimes, especially when you’re juggling high expectations, big emotions, or unexpected changes. Together, we can create a space where you feel understood and supported, while using practical tools to help manage life’s challenges. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, or a life transition, therapy can be an environment for growth and self-compassion. My approach is collaborative, relaxed, and sometimes even a little fun - designed to help you break through barriers and make meaningful progress, at your pace.
With over 10 years of clinical experience, my approach includes client-centered and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy interventions to help my clients challenge their perceptions of the world in a safe environment. I work with children utilizing these techniques as well as through play therapy and teaching parenting skills.
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, so I offer a relaxed and inviting space to build trust. Together, we’ll challenge unhelpful beliefs, uncover your strengths, and create meaningful change. I have immediate daytime openings and a waitlist for evenings. Call for a free 15-min consultation!
