One of my greatest strengths as a provider is my ability to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel genuinely seen and heard. I meet clients where they are, helping them build insight and resilience at a pace that feels right for them. My integrative approach allows me to adapt to each client’s unique needs, drawing from evidence-based methods like CBT, supportive therapy, psychoeducation, and motivational interviewing.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I specialize in working with individuals navigating major life transitions, such as entering adulthood, adjusting to parenthood, or reevaluating their purpose and direction. My clients are often feeling stuck, anxious, or disconnected as they try to balance responsibilities, relationships, and personal growth. Many are motivated for change but unsure where to start. I’m especially effective with clients who are open to exploring their thoughts and emotions, willing to challenge old patterns, and ready to build new coping skills. Whether they’re seeking clarity, healing, or just a safe space to process, I meet them where they are with empathy and support.
