It is my passion to help individuals navigate life’s challenges and achieve their therapeutic goals. With an intuitive and compassionate approach, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can feel heard and understood. I recognize the power in the client-therapist relationship, and I work to create meaningful, trusting connections with my clients.

My therapeutic approach is holistic and culturally sensitive, drawing on a variety of evidence-based techniques including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches.

I believe that each persons’ unique experiences and strengths should guide the therapeutic process, and I work collaboratively with clients to tailor treatment to their individual needs.

I believe that true healing comes from healing the whole person–the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual dimensions that are all essential to well-being. I am honored to support my clients who are on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth, helping them to find greater clarity, purpose, and fulfillment in their lives.
