As a Psychotherapist at Mental Health Strive, I help clients (18+) navigate life’s challenges with clarity and compassion. I support individuals facing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, loss, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, adjustment, and uncertainty. Using evidence-based approaches, shadow work, inner child work, and psychosomatic awareness, I help clients break repeating patterns, process emotions, and reconnect with their inner strength—fostering lasting change, resilience, and deeper well-being.
I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapies, including ACT and DBT, with relational and client-centered approaches to provide personalized care. When appropriate, I incorporate evidence-based energy psychology, such as tapping (EFT), to help release emotional blocks, build resilience, and support lasting change.
You are not alone. In our work together, I offer a warm, compassionate, judgment-free space where your story matters. A place to speak freely, feel seen, and be supported through uncertainty, grief, anxiety, or a need for change.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
