My Story

I became a therapist because I believe deeply in the human capacity for growth and healing. For over 15 years, I've had the privilege of walking alongside people through some of their most challenging moments, and witnessing incredible transformations.

My journey into psychology began with my own experience of therapy during a difficult period in my twenties. That experience showed me the profound impact that feeling truly heard and understood can have on healing.

Today, I bring that same warmth and presence to every session. I combine evidence-based techniques with genuine human connection, creating a space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment.

When I'm not in session, you'll find me hiking local trails, practicing yoga, or curled up with a good book and my rescue cat, Luna.

My Therapeutic Approach

I believe that lasting change happens when we feel safe enough to be truly ourselves. My approach is rooted in compassion, curiosity, and collaboration. Together, we'll explore the patterns and beliefs that may be holding you back, and develop practical strategies for moving forward.

"Healing doesn't mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls your life."

I draw from several evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based approaches, and attachment theory. But more than any technique, I believe the therapeutic relationship itself is the most powerful tool for change.

Every person is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet you where you are. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or life transitions, we'll work together to find what works best for you.
