Introduction

You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I believe everyone deserves a space where they can feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and athletes, and I am passionate about meeting each client where they are and walking alongside them through life's challenges. My approach to counseling is warm, genuine, and collaborative. Whether you're seeking healing from the past or supporting your child through a difficult season, I am honored to be a part of your journey. I want therapy to feel like a place where you can show up exactly as you are, without fear of judgment or pressure to have everything figured out. Together, we can explore what is bringing you to therapy, work through the challenges that may be keeping you stuck, and help you move toward the life and relationships you desire. I draw from approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and trauma-informed approaches. I am also trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and Play Therapy. I enjoy helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, and emotional challenges.
