As a seasoned clinician, I specialize in helping clients find steadiness during times of uncertainty. I bring a mindful, practical, and collaborative style to therapy, helping you slow down, make sense of your experiences, and build the skills and confidence needed to create meaningful change. My goal is to offer a grounded, compassionate space where you can reconnect with your strengths and move toward a life that feels more aligned and intentional.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we’ll take time to understand what’s bringing you to therapy and what you’re hoping will feel different in your life. I’ll ask thoughtful questions about your history, current concerns, and what kind of support feels right for you, all at a pace that feels comfortable. Together, we’ll begin clarifying your goals and outlining a path forward so you leave the session feeling heard, genuinely recognized, and more at ease about the work ahead.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strengths lie in my ability to blend deep clinical experience with a calm, attuned presence that helps clients feel safe enough to explore what’s really happening beneath the surface. I draw from evidence-based methods in a way that’s practical and personalized, helping clients understand their patterns and make changes that actually last. Years of telehealth work and supporting clients through anxiety, depression, major life transitions, as well as fertility challenges, has strengthened my ability to listen closely, ask meaningful questions, and offer insights that help people feel more capable and more connected to themselves. What stands out in my approach is the balance of warmth and directness—I’m steady, collaborative, and deeply committed to helping clients create shifts that feel both sustainable and genuinely aligned with who they want to become.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I’m especially drawn to clients who are ready to reclaim their sense of steadiness and step into a more intentional version of their lives. My ideal clients are thoughtful, self‑aware individuals navigating anxiety, major life transitions, fertility challenges, or women’s issues, and looking for a space where their strength is recognized, not overlooked. They may be young professionals reshaping their careers, women moving through seasons of identity and possibility, or people who feel the pull toward a more grounded, values‑aligned life. I work best with clients who want to understand their patterns with honesty and compassion, reconnect with their inner resilience, and build changes that feel sustainable and self‑directed. Together, we will create a space where clarity grows, confidence expands, and meaningful shifts become possible.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you understand what’s driving your distress and to build skills that genuinely support your well‑being. We’ll explore your patterns with curiosity, challenge them gently, and practice new ways of thinking and coping that feel more aligned with the life you want.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I’ve spent years integrating mindfulness into therapy to help clients slow down, notice what’s happening inside, and respond with more intention. Together, we build simple practices that create space from stress and help you feel more grounded in daily life.
Motivational Interviewing
Motivational Interviewing is woven into my work as a way to help you identify what matters most and move toward it with confidence. We’ll explore your values, strengthen your sense of agency, and create a path forward that feels both doable and aligned with who you are.
