I am a person-centered, strengths-based therapist dedicated to providing empathetic, compassionate support throughout your journey. My role is to help you gain new perspectives on challenges, identify solutions that align with your unique needs, and empower you to move forward with confidence.
Whether you are seeking support for individual concerns, family or relationship issues, or challenges along the parenting spectrum—such as infertility, postpartum transitions, pregnancy loss, or perinatal depression—it would be my privilege to hear your story.
I specialize in working with adults, couples, parents, and teens to navigate relational and life challenges. I believe that fostering the mental health and well-being of adults is key to building strong, healthy relationships with children. Too often, the needs of a child or teen are addressed without considering the well-being of their adult support systems
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or simply need someone to listen without judgment, you are not alone. Reaching out can be hard, but it’s a powerful step toward healing. Whatever you’re facing, I’m here to walk beside you, creating a safe space where your voice is heard and your well-being is the priority.
