Nice to meet you

Therapy with me is a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself without judgment. I bring warmth, compassion, and practical tools to help you manage stress, build healthier relationships, and feel more grounded. My style is caring and collaborative—I walk alongside you as we explore patterns that may be keeping you stuck while focusing on your strengths. Together we’ll set clear goals, track progress, and celebrate your growth so you leave each session feeling understood, supported, and more confident.
