Introduction

I believe that therapy works best when built on genuine trust and honesty. As a counselor, I prioritize the therapeutic relationship above all else—creating a space where you feel safe to show up as you are, without judgment. I work with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, OCD, mood disorders, relationship challenges, life transitions, and many other concerns. Whether you're processing past pain, managing a mental health condition, facing family conflict, or exploring identity and belonging, I draw from a diverse toolkit of evidence-based approaches—including CBT, EMDR, DBT, Internal Family Systems, and somatic work—tailored to what resonates with you. I'm particularly committed to affirming LGBTQIA+ clients and those from marginalized communities. I offer both telehealth and in-person sessions and am currently accepting new clients. If you're ready to begin this work, I'm here to walk alongside you with openness and care.
