Nice to meet you

My therapy style is collaborative, compassionate, and direct. I believe therapy works best through authentic human connection, where honesty, humor, and curiosity are welcome. I am solution-focused and offer a healthy challenge when it helps you reflect and take meaningful action. Clients often describe me as personable and supportive. I draw from a variety of approaches tailored to your needs, always focusing on building awareness, strengthening your voice, and creating real change in your life.
