About me
A therapist grounded in lived experience, helping others navigate life with care and clarity; known as wise, genuine, attentive, and compassionate.
I understand struggle not only professionally, but personally. As a person in recovery, my lived experience informs my work in meaningful ways. Combined with my clinical training, it shapes a practice grounded in empathy, authenticity, and deep respect for the courage it takes to seek support.
Therapy, to me, is not about fixing you—it is about sitting beside you as you untangle what hurts, what feels stuck, and what no longer serves you. It is about creating space for the parts of you that learned to survive and gently helping you decide what you want to carry forward. You deserve care that feels human, a space where you do not have to perform wellness or minimize your pain. Healing is not linear, but it is possible—and you do not have to walk that path alone.
