Many people come to therapy feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve them—whether that’s overwhelm, self-doubt, relationship challenges, or feeling pulled in different directions internally. My ideal clients are curious about themselves and open to understanding the patterns and internal conflicts shaping their experiences. Therapy is a collaborative process focused on building insight, growth, and creating sustainable change.
I use a variety of approaches tailored to your needs. I often integrate CBT and parts work (Internal Family Systems) to help shift unhelpful patterns while exploring the different parts of you that hold emotions or protective roles. I believe meaningful growth often involves gently challenging the patterns that keep us stuck.
My passion for counseling is grounded in genuine connection and authenticity, which shows up in my work with clients. I value humor, honesty, and warmth, and I believe therapy can be both meaningful and enjoyable. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself while doing work that is both supportive and practical.

I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy which is often centered around the clients needs. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my sessions to address how thoughts can affect behavior. I also use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy which can help clients move away from rigidity and allow for a more fluid way of behaving.
