I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely understood, not analyzed or judged. My approach is warm, compassionate, conversational, and grounded in building a genuine connection. I want therapy to be a space where you can show up exactly as you are, including the messy, complicated, and contradictory parts of yourself.

‍

My style is collaborative, engaged, and often direct. I'll challenge you, help you recognize patterns, and ask questions that encourage deeper reflection. I also use humor frequently because therapy can be hard enough without every moment feeling so serious.

‍

My work is primarily grounded in CBT, while incorporating ACT, narrative therapy, mindfulness, and other approaches tailored to your needs. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, grief, relationships, and life transitions. I'm especially passionate about working with survivors of domestic violence, emotional abuse, and other forms of trauma. I believe understanding how our experiences shape us is an important part of healing, but those experiences don't have to define us.

You don't need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We'll work together to make sense of what you're experiencing, build insight, and develop tools for meaningful change. Above all, I want you to feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood.
