I lead my practice with the core values of empowerment, self compassion, and personal growth. I help adults and young adults navigate experiences related to trauma, mood disorders, and anxiety by providing a space that is non judgmental and safe, and - when appropriate - light hearted. I believe everyone has an inner knowing; my role is to support you as you process your emotions and thoughts and find the answers you already have within yourself. Having been a therapy client for years myself, I can say that healing can be a journey that has its challenges, and is also rewarding and a huge relief.

Over the last 5 years as a social worker and therapist, many of my clients have told me that after sessions, they feel more seen, understood, and have gained more clarity. I’m a believer that pain has to be witnessed to be healed, and we are not meant to carry the burdens of life alone.

At your first session with me, I will center the conversation around building a connection with you through learning your history, holding space for your current emotions, and establishing your goals for the future. Most importantly, you will be able to get a sense for if I'm a good fit for you.
