Nice to meet you

I am a licensed therapist with over 8 years of experience supporting individuals facing a wide range of mental health concerns. I specialize in individualized, trauma-informed, person-centered, and strengths-based treatment. I use a collaborative and holistic approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered frameworks to tailor therapy to your specific needs. I aim to build a positive, genuine, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship, providing a safe space where you can begin your journey of self-exploration, healing, and self-actualization.
