Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or ADHD, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and practical tools. I believe that therapy is a space for growth, and I work best with clients who are open to collaboration, even if they're unsure where to start. Together, we’ll explore your concerns, uncover your goals, and build coping strategies that improve your daily life. You don’t have to have it all figured out—I just ask that you come with honesty and a willingness to explore. Healing begins with a conversation, and I’m here to help guide the way.
I strive to create a space where every client feels safe, seen, and supported. My goal is to meet you where you are—honoring your unique story and needs—with a blend of compassion, curiosity, and evidence-based practices like CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care.
I understand that getting started can be hard which is why I try my best to make the process as smooth as possible. Feel free to reach out to schedule an intake, a phone consultation or even a question.
