My therapeutic approach centers around compassion and empathy for my clients. I feel everyone deserves a place where they may explore, process, and question their ideas, emotions, and life challenges without fear of being judged. We will work together to empower you to overcome challenges, build resilience, and experience personal growth in a holistic way, by integrating evidence-based therapies with customized interventions based on your needs.

While it might not seem possible now, you CAN rein them in and I’d like to show you how.
