About me
I am an experienced and deeply compassionate licensed therapist who has experience with children, teens, young adults, adults, and 65+ deal with various difficulties, including anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma.
My ideal client is someone who feels stuck—whether in patterns of anxiety, grief, trauma, or relational struggles—but deep down, they want change. They may not have all the answers yet, but they are seeking emotional relief and a greater sense of purpose. They want to heal, grow, and rediscover their strength—because deep down, they know they are capable of more. They are tired of feeling like life is just happening to them. They want to take an active role in their healing journey, learning to navigate challenges with confidence and self-kindess
I help individuals take ownership of their life with resilience, self-compassion, and empowerment. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, trauma, depression, or relational concerns, I provide a safe and supportive space where you can process your emotions, develop coping skills, and rediscover your inner strength.
If you’re feeling stuck or uncertain about the future, I invite you to take that brave first step toward healing. You don’t need to have it all figured out—just a willingness to show up for yourself. Together, we will explore what’s holding you back, identify patterns, and build tools that will help you move forward.
