Introduction

I became a therapist because I believe in the power of healing through connection. So many of us carry invisible wounds—whether from past trauma, ongoing anxiety, depression, or feeling like we’re never “enough.” My heart is in helping people come home to themselves with compassion, clarity, and courage. I specialize in working with teens, young adults, and adults who are navigating deep emotional pain, relationship struggles, or major life transitions. I use a trauma-informed, client-centered approach, blending evidence-based techniques like CBT and mindfulness with heartfelt support. Therapy with me isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about real, lasting change grounded in empathy and trust. If you're feeling lost, exhausted, or simply ready to find a better way forward, I’d love to support you.
