For over 17 years, I’ve worked with college students, therapists, and adults, helping them understand relationship patterns, explore their needs, and address insecurities. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, and depression, while also supporting clients through life transitions, sexuality concerns, and stress. I believe everyone is unique, with their own path to growth, and I take a flexible, integrative approach to meet your specific needs. Together, we can work toward deeper understanding and meaningful change.
I provide a safe, supportive space where clients feel understood. As a therapist, I act as an educator, coach, and source of insight, helping clients process emotions, identify patterns, and create actionable plans. My experience has shown me the vital role of wellness and relationships in promoting mental health and personal growth.
Life can be overwhelming, and everyone needs support at times. If you’re struggling and looking for a safe space to sort things out, I encourage you to reach out. I understand how hard it can be to take that first step, and I personally return all calls to honor your effort. Let’s work together toward clarity and growth.

I work with clients managing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. In our early sessions, I focus on building trust and identifying practical interventions, like improving sleep, wellness, and social support, for immediate relief. Once stability is established, we dive deeper into trauma-focused patterns and themes to prevent future struggles and promote lasting growth.

I integrate the Circle of Security caregiver model with person-centered therapy. The model emphasizes the caregiver's role as being strong, wise, and kind to create safety for emotional exploration. Person-centered therapy focuses on following your needs, using active listening techniques like reflecting, summarizing, and empathizing to support your growth and healing.
