People come to therapy for all types of reasons; sometimes it’s easy to name - a career change, low mood - and sometimes it’s not. Sometimes you just feel off, need a new perspective, or simply someone to listen. I provide mental health counseling to adults & teens who are feeling the weight of life’s pressures. This looks different for everyone. But if you’re carrying more than you’d like and wondering what change could look like, this might be the right space for you. I offer a safe, empathetic, judgement-free environment in which we can explore challenges together. Whatever you're facing, you don't have to do it alone.
I bring a warm, genuine presence to counseling. I value connection and sessions with me are more like a conversation than a formal, structured process - relaxed, exploratory, and moving at whatever pace feels right for you. There is no “right way” to do therapy, and no pressure to perform or be anything except yourself.
Nervous? Understandable – it can feel like a big step to start therapy. But you don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to start. Reach out to set up a 15-minute phone meeting to discuss whether or not we would be a good fit to work together. I look forward to meeting you.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. In session, this means our work will be guided by your needs, your pace, and your goals. Some days we may talk and reflect, other sessions we may learn skills and/or focus on solutions. I may draw from several psychological frameworks to support our work together including mindfulness, CBT & ACT.
