I know reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and my goal is to create a safe space where you feel seen, heard, and able to show up just as you are. I work with children, teenagers, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, family and relationship challenges, life transitions, serious mental illness, and trauma. I deeply value the inherent dignity and worth of human beings and the experiences that have shaped you. Whether you’re looking for help with something specific or simply need a calm, supportive place to sort through your thoughts and feelings, we can take the next step together.
I pull from a range of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET) to help us explore both what you’re feeling and what might help you move forward. My experience in community mental health and crisis services has shaped my commitment to meeting each person with openness, curiosity, and empathy. I have worked with individuals from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds and respect each person’s unique perspective and lens.
If you’re considering therapy, you’re welcome here. Starting this journey can feel overwhelming, and I’d be honored to support you as you take this next step toward healing, growth, and self-discovery.
