My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe therapy is a collaborative endeavor, and its effectiveness lies in the strength of the therapeutic relationship. My goal is to help you better understand your challenges, the dynamics of your relationships, your history, and yourself in a safe and caring environment. My treatment style is rooted in an evidenced-based/strengths-based approach utilizing cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. At the center of my practice is a collaborative relationship with clients and the desire to support their development by encouraging self-understanding, skills development, and self-compassion.

I know first-hand the vulnerability it takes to seek support and the courage it takes to make change. Together, we can navigate anxiety, trauma, grief + loss, life transitions, existential crises, and relationship difficulties. I’m here to help you develop self-awareness, nurture self-compassion, and cultivate resilience so you can realign with your true self and thrive.
I work with individuals and couples motivated to improve their relationships with themselves and others. My best-fit individual clients are often women 25+ experiencing high-functioning anxiety, the effects of complex trauma, or grief and loss. I specialize in helping clients navigate the rocky terrain of grief with tenderness and compassion.
Couples that tend to benefit most from therapy with me want to revitalize their emotional and physical connections or rebuild trust after a betrayal. I enjoy facilitating clients’ self-exploration as they reconnect with their authentic selves and rediscover the simple joys of life.
My style is warm, compassionate, and down-to-earth. You can expect me to strategically adapt my approach to meet your unique needs. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and empowering space in which you are welcome exactly as you are. It would be an honor to walk alongside you on your journey of self-discovery, healing, and fulfillment.
