About me

I'm a therapist with nearly a decade of experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. I work with clients of all ages, bringing compassion and expertise to a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, and the complexities of major life transitions.

My approach centers on helping you build self-love, strengthen communication, and navigate attachment patterns. I specialize in supporting people through, relationship difficulties, mood disorders, and the unique challenges of parenting. I also have particular experience working with adoption and foster care experiences, autism spectrum differences, and seasonal mood changes.

Whether you're processing past trauma, managing social anxiety, or working through family dynamics, I'm here to create a safe, affirming space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace. I draw on evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to your individual needs and goals.

I believe healing happens when you feel truly heard and supported. I'm honored to walk alongside you as you move toward greater peace and resilience in your life.
