About me

As a therapist with expertise in trauma, chronic depression and anxiety, relational and attachment difficulties, and substance use disorders, I focus on helping clients make meaningful changes. Using evidence-based modalities like DBT, RO-DBT, trauma-informed therapies, and schema therapy, I tailor treatment to each individual’s unique needs. My goal is to guide clients toward emotional resilience and self-awareness, fostering a compassionate and empowering space for healing and growth.

I am a therapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s most challenging emotional and psychological struggles, with a special focus on working with the LGBTQIA+ community. My practice is built on the belief that healing comes from within, and my role is to serve as a guide, providing the tools and support to help you uncover your own path to wellness.

With extensive experience addressing trauma, chronic depression and anxiety, complex relational and attachment issues, and substance use disorders, I create a safe, compassionate environment where you can explore your emotions and work toward meaningful, lasting change. I utilize evidence-based therapies such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Radically Open DBT (RO-DBT), trauma-informed approaches, and schema therapy, tailoring each treatment plan to fit your unique needs and goals.

In addition to my professional work, I’m passionate about nature and animals, and I believe strongly in the healing power of connection—whether with ourselves, others, or the natural world. I draw inspiration from these elements in my therapeutic approach, helping clients find balance, resilience, and self-awareness. If you’re ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and growth, I would be honored to walk alongside you. Together, we can uncover the tools you need to heal and thrive.
