Introduction

Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes, we just need a space to pause, breathe, reflect, and reconnect with ourselves. As a therapist, my approach is all about meeting you where you are—without judgment—while helping you uncover the strengths and resilience you already carry within you. I take a holistic, wellness-focused approach by blending different therapy styles, like Attachment theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), allowing us to create a personalized experience that fits your unique needs. With over 17 years of experience working with people from all walks of life, I know that healing isn’t a one-size-fits-all journey. Whether you’re struggling with relationships, self-doubt, anxiety, or life changes, I’m here to support you in breaking free from unhelpful patterns and gaining confidence in yourself. Therapy should feel like a safe, supportive space—somewhere you can be yourself while working towards greater clarity, resilience & well-being. I offer video & phone sessions w/flexible scheduling. If you’re wondering whether we’d be a good fit, reach out today for a free 15-min. consult. I’d love to connect & explore how I can support your wellness journey.
