Nice to meet you

I believe therapy is a journey that fosters healing, change, and growth. My goal is to provide a compassionate, collaborative, and safe space for vulnerability and transformation. I help individuals work through depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, stress, and relationship issues. I use an integrative approach drawing from evidence-based modalities, including CBT, DBT, EMDR, and psychodynamic therapy, to support each client’s unique healing process.
