Welcome, I'm glad you're here. Life can be demanding, and many individuals—both children and adults—struggle with stressors such as academic pressure, interpersonal conflict, difficulties with screen time management, or feeling consistently overwhelmed. If you or your child are facing these challenges, you're not alone. I specialize in working with individuals across the lifespan who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma. My approach is rooted in empathy, clinical expertise, and evidence-based practices. I strive to create a safe and supportive therapeutic environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.
In our work together, we’ll focus on building emotional regulation skills, improving decision-making, enhancing self-esteem, and developing healthier boundaries with technology. Therapy is a collaborative process, and my role is to guide and support you in identifying strategies that align with your unique needs and goals
My therapeutic approach incorporates cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based interventions, and trauma-informed care. Through this integrated framework, I aim to help clients build resilience, develop insight, and effectively manage life’s challenges.
