Specializes in: Anxiety, Depression, Trauma

Introduction

I bring warmth and a non-judgmental approach to every session, believing that therapy works best when you feel truly seen and safe. As a marriage and family therapist, I work with individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan—from teenagers through older adults—navigating anxiety, depression, and trauma. I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), family systems work, and EMDR to help you understand patterns, build resilience, and strengthen your most important relationships. Whether you're processing past pain, managing overwhelming emotions, or reconnecting with loved ones, I'm here to support you at whatever pace feels right. I offer telehealth sessions that bring therapy to your space and fit your schedule. I'm currently accepting new clients and would welcome the opportunity to work with you.
