Compassionate and client-centered, I help individuals heal from depression, anxiety, PTSD, and insomnia using CBT, CBT-I, ACT, AFT, mindfulness, and psychodynamic approaches. My ideal client feels stuck in cycles of worry, sadness, or exhaustion yet longs for peace, clarity, and connection. They seek tools to calm the mind, heal from pain, and live authentically. Together, we create space for growth, self-compassion, and lasting change.
I offer compassionate psychotherapy using CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based approaches. I help clients heal from trauma, strengthen relationships, and navigate LGBTQ+ identity and life challenges. My goal is to create a safe, affirming space for growth, resilience, and authentic connection.
You don’t have to face this alone. Reaching out for support takes courage, and I’m here to meet you with compassion, understanding, and respect for your unique journey. Together, we can work toward healing, self-acceptance, and meaningful change—one step at a time. When you’re ready, I’m here to help.
