Nice to meet you

I provide counseling for life transitions, depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, ADHD, chronic illness, grief, and trauma. As a holistic therapist, I support healing of the mind, body, and spirit to help you become your most grounded and empowered self. I integrate cognitive behavioral therapy to challenge unhelpful thoughts, grounding techniques like yoga and time in nature to reset the nervous system, and spiritual practices to deepen self-awareness. Together, we’ll develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique healing journey.
