Welcome! Taking the first step toward therapy is a powerful and courageous decision. Whether you're seeking support for life transitions, navigating overwhelming emotions, or simply desiring a deeper connection with yourself, I am here to walk alongside you. You don’t need to have all the words or even know exactly where to begin—that’s what we uncover together. I offer a compassionate and grounded space where you can safely explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Vulnerability isn’t always easy, but I believe that when someone dares to step into that space, profound growth can happen.

Get to know me

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

We’ll move at your pace, cultivating curiosity rather than judgment. My approach is rooted in empathy, trust, and a commitment to your well-being. Whether we’re working through anxiety, relationship issues, grief, or finding meaning in life’s challenges, I tailor my approach to meet your needs, drawing from psychodynamic therapy and mindfulness practices. You don’t have to face it all alone. Together, we can create the path toward healing and greater self-understanding. I invite you to reach out and schedule a consultation—I'd love to connect and explore how I can support you.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have had the opportunity to work with several populaitons including: couples, homeless population, addiction, human trafficking, foster care, medical social work, attachment work with infants and toddlers. I truly and wholeheartedly walk along side clients in their journey during every session.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

It will be a great fit if you are in need of someone compassionate who will give you honest feedback.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) because our thoughts are directly connected to our behaviors and perspectives. By working together to identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, we can begin to shift these thought processes, leading to healthier emotional responses and more constructive behaviors

EMDR

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is helpful because it allows people to reprocess trauma and shift negative beliefs about themselves, their relationships, and the world around them. The process is not always linear—it can bring up layers of experiences and emotions in unexpected ways. That’s why it takes a skilled therapist to guide clients through all eight phases of EMDR, ensuring that the work is safe, effective, and healing.
