(she/her)
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 12 years of professional experience. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders and a wide range of adult mental health concerns. I work with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and experiences of abuse, as well as challenges related to self-esteem, motivation, and self-worth. I support clients who are coping with major life transitions, caregiver stress, illness, disability, workplace challenges, and communication difficulties in relationships. I also help individuals work through feelings of guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, questions of life purpose, midlife concerns, forgiveness, self-love, and women’s issues. Using evidence-based therapeutic approaches, I help clients better understand their emotional patterns, develop healthy coping strategies, and build resilience. My approach is compassionate and individualized, and I strive to create a supportive space where adults can heal, grow, and move toward greater clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being.
In our first session, we’ll begin by discussing what brings you to therapy and what you hope to achieve. I’ll ask some questions to better understand your experiences and current challenges, and we’ll start identifying goals for our work together. Most importantly, this session is about creating a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, comfortable, and understood.
My therapeutic approach is the balance between compassion and practical, evidence-based tools. I create a supportive space where clients feel safe exploring difficult emotions while also gaining concrete strategies to manage anxiety, trauma, and life stressors. My work is collaborative and individualized. Together, we identify patterns, set meaningful goals, and build skills that foster resilience, confidence, and lasting emotional growth.
I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. *Please note that I do not provide any letters.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have been using CBT for many years as an evidence-base practice.

She’s very warm and kind. Could relate to me and made me feel safe expressing my thoughts. Felt lighter just after a session. Made me feel I’m not wrong and it’s all normal.
