Hi, I'm so glad you're here. Taking the first step toward therapy can be one of the hardest. I welcome clients from all walks of life and have a special passion for supporting women of all ages, teens, young adults and children. My approach is warm, compassionate, and person-centered. I believe in meeting you where you are and honoring the unique experiences that have shaped your story. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and understood as we work together toward healing, growth, and meaningful change. If this feels like the right fit for you, I'd be honored to connect and schedule an intake. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to help determine if we're a good fit.

Get to know me

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

During our first session, we'll create a calm, supportive space to get to know one another. We'll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you're hoping for, and any goals you may have, all at a pace that feels comfortable for you. There is no pressure to share more than you're ready to. My priority is helping you feel safe, heard, and understood. Together, we'll explore what support looks like for you and begin building a therapeutic relationship centered on your strengths, needs, and unique experiences. My hope is that you leave feeling supported and reassured that you don't have to navigate this alone.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

What sets my approach apart is a balance of compassion, authenticity, and honesty. I show up as a real person in the room, creating a space where you feel supported, understood, and never alone in the process. I tailor therapy to your unique needs, strengths, and goals, drawing from evidence-based practices while honoring your lived experience. My hope is to provide a warm, trusting relationship where you feel empowered to heal, grow, and create meaningful change. Provide your feedback on BizChat

My treatment methods

EMDR

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy approach that helps people heal from distressing experiences, trauma, anxiety, and other emotional wounds. Although it can seem unusual at first, many people find it to be a gentle and effective way to process experiences that feel "stuck."

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) is one of the most widely used and well-researched forms of therapy. At its heart, CBT is based on a simple but powerful idea: The way we think affects the way we feel, and the way we feel affects the way we act. CBT helps people identify unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior, then learn healthier, more balanced ways of responding to life's challenges.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Generating response Copilot said: DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) is a compassionate, skills-based form of therapy that helps people manage intense emotions, improve relationships, cope with stress, and build a life that feels more meaningful and balanced. At its heart, DBT teaches two seemingly opposite ideas that can both be true at the same time: You are doing the best you can. And you can learn new skills to make things better. This balance of acceptance and change is what makes DBT unique.
