Nice to meet you

I welcome and affirm clients of all races, religions, sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, abilities, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds. My approach is compassionate, supportive, client-centered, and strength-based. Together, we’ll identify tools and set goals to support your wellness and healing. I work with you to recognize and shift destructive patterns so you can feel more grounded and move toward greater self-acceptance, whether through short-term, solution-focused therapy or deeper, exploratory work.
