New to Grow
I am a licensed therapist with over two decades of experience supporting adults through life’s challenges. I like to think I offer a calm, compassionate space for clients navigating emotional distress, relationship concerns, and periods of transition. I value authenticity and believes therapy should feel both supportive and practical. I offer a calm, grounded presence, the ability to hold complexity without rushing, and a balance of honesty and warmth. My approach is strengths-based and focused on supporting clients’ resilience and sense of agency.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
I like to view the first sessions as a meet and greet. Just as I am going to ask questions to get to know more about you, your reasons for seeking therapy, and your goals, I hope you ask a bunch of questions about me. The therapist-client relationship is one of collaboration and respect and your trust in me is of the utmost importance!
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I bring a calm, steady presence to therapy, particularly in complex or emotionally intense situations. I am able to sit with uncertainty without rushing the process, while offering honest, compassionate feedback that supports insight and growth. My work is grounded in a strengths-based approach that emphasizes resilience, agency, and empowerment.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I work best with adults facing emotional complexity, life transitions, and relational challenges who are seeking thoughtful, steady support rather than quick solutions. These clients often value a therapist who can tolerate uncertainty, hold nuance, and provide steady guidance without rushing the process—especially during periods of emotional intensity or transition.
Supportive
I am dedicated to providing compassionate, client-centered care. I focus on empowering my clients to achieve their goals and develop strategies for lasting change. My therapeutic style is rooted in empathy and collaboration with a strong belief that everyone has the capacity to grow and overcome obstacles with the right support. I provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
My therapeutic style is rooted in empathy and collaboration with a strong belief that everyone can grow and overcome obstacles with the right support. My practice is client-centered and integrative, combining CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness techniques.
