Introduction

I strive to help you achieve your goals in becoming the best you you can be. However, becoming the best version of yourself is a journey, and for many people, therapy is the first step. Seeking counseling is fundamental in this journey for healing, growth, and self-compassion. I aim to provide a nonjudgmental, safe place for you to explore areas of your life that are no longer serving you. I hope to encourage clients to step into the daylight and let it go. I work with teen girls and women struggling with depression, anxiety, and trauma. I enjoy helping clients explore relationship issues and examine problems stemming from family of origin. I adopt a strengths-based approach—you are the expert of your life, not me. I utilize an eclectic mix of therapies in our journey to help you better understand you. The world can be dark and scary, but you don't have to navigate the storms on your own. Let's explore ways to increase resilience and let go of patterns that are no longer serving you to embrace better days in your life.
