Nice to meet you
Warmth and safety. That’s where I like to start. If you're considering therapy, you're already brave. Welcome to the edge of what's possible. I look forward to meeting you and walking alongside you on your journey of growth.
Being a therapist has always felt like where I belong. As a Certified Family Trauma Professional and parenting consultant, I bring a deep understanding of how family systems and early experiences shape who we are. I’m not a purist of any one treatment approach (CBT, SFBT, etc.). Each person has their own story, so no cookie-cutter modality works for everyone. Healing looks different for each of us. Where are the tender places you'd like to explore? I’m here to help.
