About me

You don’t have to keep holding everything together on your own. You deserve a space where you can be honest, unload what’s been weighing you down, and feel supported rather than judged. My style is straightforward, grounded, and genuinely human. Whether you’re carrying the impact of trauma, struggling with anxiety or depression, or simply overwhelmed by the demands of everyday life, I meet you exactly where you are. Together we slow things down, sort through the noise, and build the skills you need to move forward with confidence and steadiness. As a licensed therapist and veteran, I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience. I work with adults who feel stuck, burnt out, disconnected, or unsure of their next step. You don’t need answers before you start—you just need a place to land. Our work is intentional and collaborative. We talk, yes—but we also uncover patterns, create practical strategies, and make meaningful progress toward feeling more grounded, balanced, and in control of your life. This is a space to breathe, untangle, heal, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that have gone quiet. If you’re ready for support as you do the real work of healing and change, I’d be honored to help you get there.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Your first session is about connection, not perfection.. Our work begins with conversation—not pressure. You’re invited to share at your own pace, whether that means opening up right away or simply getting a feel for the process. I’ll ask gentle, thoughtful questions to understand what’s been happening in your life and what you hope to gain from therapy. Together, we’ll begin shaping a plan that feels manageable, supportive, and personally meaningful. I view therapy as a genuine partnership—one where you don’t have to navigate everything on your own. My role is to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered as you move toward lasting growth and change. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Reach out today—healing begins here.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

With nearly ten years of experience supporting children, teens, and adults—and a special emphasis on women’s mental health—I provide a warm, collaborative space where you can feel seen, supported, and understood. My approach combines genuine empathy with practical, evidence-based strategies to help you feel grounded and safe as you work toward meaningful, lasting change. Whether you’re coping with anxiety, burnout, self-doubt, or difficult relationship patterns, we’ll work together to uncover what’s holding you back and help you reconnect with a steadier, more confident version of yourself. Through trauma-informed care, I guide clients in shifting unhelpful thoughts, deepening self-awareness, and rebuilding trust in themselves and their path forward. Therapy is an invitation to find balance, clarity, and renewed confidence. If you’re ready, reach out—let’s begin your journey toward feeling lighter, stronger, and more at peace.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I specialize in supporting adults and teens who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected and want to move toward meaningful change—even if they’re uncertain about where to begin. My clients often come to me while navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, burnout, or major life transitions that have shaken their sense of stability and direction. Many are looking to break unhelpful patterns, strengthen their relationships, or reclaim confidence after difficult or discouraging experiences. My role is to help them find clarity, reconnect with themselves, and build a path forward that feels grounded and authentic. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both compassion and practicality. I believe healing happens through understanding, connection, and consistent support. Together, we’ll work to uncover what’s been holding you back, develop tools to manage stress and emotions, and create new ways of thinking and coping that feel authentic and sustainable. My goal is to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move toward lasting growth, balance, and a renewed sense of self.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a supportive and collaborative approach that helps you navigate life’s challenges by gently exploring and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is a practical, empowering method that focuses on building real-life strategies you can use every day—both in and outside of therapy. Together, we’ll work to understand how your thoughts, feelings, and actions are connected, so you can feel more confident, resilient, and in control of your well-being.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

With over five years of experience providing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I specialize in helping people who feel overwhelmed by their emotions, struggle in relationships, or just want better tools to handle life’s ups and downs. DBT is a powerful blend of acceptance and change, and in our work together, I’ll offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel understood and empowered. You’ll learn practical, everyday skills to help you manage stress, communicate more effectively, and create meaningful, lasting change in your life.

Trauma-Focused CBT

I offer Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), a gentle, evidence-based approach that supports children, teens, and their caregivers in healing from the effects of trauma. TF-CBT provides a safe and nurturing space where young people can begin to process what they’ve been through, better understand their emotions, and learn healthy, effective ways to cope. This approach combines practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy with gradual, supportive steps to reduce symptoms like anxiety, sadness, fear, and behavioral challenges. I work closely with both children and their caregivers—because healing happens best together—to help foster resilience, emotional growth, and lasting well-being.

Strength-Based

I offer Strength-Based Therapy, a supportive and empowering approach that focuses on what makes you strong, not just what’s been difficult. Together, we’ll explore your resilience, your inner resources, and the ways you’ve already grown through life’s challenges—often more than you realize. Instead of focusing on what’s “wrong,” we’ll look at what’s right and build from there. This kind of therapy helps you reconnect with your sense of identity, confidence, and purpose, offering a fresh and hopeful path toward healing and lasting change.
