Maybe you’ve thought about getting help but were nervous to try again or didn’t think it would work.
You’re struggling with feelings of anxiety, depression, or trauma that are impacting your daily life. You may feel overwhelmed, isolated, and unsure of how to move forward. You’re searching for a compassionate and experienced therapist who can help you heal, grow, and build resilience.
Whether its anxiety, social anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, confidence and self-esteem, or life transitions, I use a variety of therapeutic modalities. I believe in a holistic approach that embraces the connection between mind, body, and soul. I’ll incorporate things like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for restructuring negative thought patterns, mindfulness techniques for grounding and self-awareness, and expressive arts therapies for creative expression and deeper understanding of experiences, trauma, and emotions. Each approach is tailored to meet your unique needs and promote overall well-being.
I specialize in working with children, teens, adults and families, with a focus on fostering not just healing, but also empowering growth and development. Finding the right therapist for you personally or for your child or teen can be challenging, but I’m here to help.
My approach with adults is one of compassion and genuine care. With experience in trauma and the deep impact it can have on our relationship to the world, I understand how pervasive that can be. You’ll feel heard, understood and ready to make the changes you desire so deeply.
My approach with children is rooted in child-centered play therapy, where I facilitate healthy expression by providing a reliable and nurturing environment where they can explore and communicate naturally through play. For teens, I understand they want to feel heard, validated, and comfortable to explore their emotions and experiences. I help build skills and confidence, guiding them through challenges and transitions with empathy and support.
I am passionate about witnessing the positive, lasting changes therapy can bring to individuals and families alike. With empathy, dedication, and a heartfelt commitment to fostering resilience and wellness, I strive to be a compassionate guide on your journey toward growth and well-being. I’m here to support you every step of the way, and I look forward to working together to achieve your goals.

You remember a time when you felt more centered but it feels like a lifetime ago. You notice yourself repeating the same self-sabotaging patterns.

I am passionate about helping people fully experience themselves, relationships, and live life fully. Therapy isn’t easy, but it’s worth the work. I am truly honored to support you as you take this step toward your wellness.
