Welcome! I’m here to support you with compassion, warmth, and understanding as we work together toward your personal growth and well-being. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practices, and I meet each client where they are—creating a safe, non-judgmental space for open exploration. Whether you're struggling with relationship issues; dealing with high-conflict individuals/partners; stress; anxiety; self-esteem issues; or other life challenges; my goal is to guide you through these difficulties with care and collaboration, empowering you to create the fulfilling life you deserve. One of my specific focuses is working with people in high-conflict relationships or who are dealing with high-conflict people.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can feel comfortable sharing your experiences and concerns. During this time, we will discuss your background, the challenges you're currently facing, and your goals for therapy. This initial session is an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have about the process and for me to understand how I can best support you. You can expect the session to focus on: Understanding Your Needs: We’ll take time to explore what brought you to therapy, whether you’re struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, or other personal challenges. Building Trust and Rapport: Establishing a trusting relationship is key to successful therapy. I will listen actively and empathetically as you share your thoughts and feelings. Setting Goals: Together, we will begin to identify goals for our work together, whether it’s finding tools to manage stress, improving communication, or addressing deeper issues like self-worth or boundaries. Establishing a Plan: Based on our conversation, we’ll discuss the approach that best suits your needs and tailor our sessions to help you move toward positive change. Your first session is a time to begin building a path toward healing and growth, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way. There’s no need to worry about having all the answers — we’ll work through things together at a pace that feels right for you.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a therapist, I bring a deep sense of empathy, active listening, and a non-judgmental approach to every session. My clients often appreciate my ability to create a safe, supportive space where they can express themselves freely and explore their challenges without fear of judgment. Some of my greatest strengths include: Empathy and Compassion: I take the time to understand my clients’ unique experiences and offer validation and support. My compassionate approach fosters trust and encourages clients to feel comfortable being open and vulnerable. Collaboration and Client-Centered Care: I believe in working collaboratively with my clients, ensuring they are active participants in the therapeutic process. I tailor my approach to meet each individual’s needs, empowering them to reach their personal goals. Expertise in Navigating Complex Relationships: I specialize in helping individuals manage the challenges of narcissistic relationships, emotional abuse, and unhealthy dynamics. My ability to guide clients through these difficult situations with care and practical strategies is one of my key strengths. Evidence-Based Approach: I use a range of evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies, to help clients achieve lasting change and build coping skills. Respect for Each Client’s Journey: I recognize that each person’s journey is unique, and I am committed to meeting clients where they are. I take a personalized, holistic approach to therapy that honors your pace and individual needs. By blending empathy with practical tools, I am dedicated to helping you navigate your challenges and create a path toward healing, growth, and fulfillment.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I specialize in helping individuals navigate the complexities of relationships with challenging dynamics, including those involving narcissistic behaviors. Many of my clients come to me feeling confused, drained, or trapped by manipulation, gaslighting, or emotional abuse. With a compassionate, solutions-focused approach, I empower clients to understand their experiences, rebuild their self-worth, set healthy boundaries, and move toward healing and personal growth.
