Here to Help You Heal
As a licensed mental health counselor with eight years of experience, I specialize in emotion regulation and interpersonal challenges for children, adolescents, and adults. Whether you're struggling to name what you're feeling, finding it hard to communicate your emotions to the people around you, or simply looking for steadier ground, I'm here to help you work through it.
Authenticity and tactfulness aren't opposites to me; they're the combination that makes real therapeutic work possible. You can expect me to be warm and supportive, and also direct. Together, we'll get to what matters.
My Approach to Care
Authenticity is at the core of how I work. Using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), integrative, and person-centered techniques, I create a warm, safe, and supportive space where you can be straightforward about what you're struggling with and express your emotions in a healthy way — because that honesty is where real progress begins.
From there, we work together to identify and address any parts of your stressors that are within your power to change and what may need to be accepted. Every person communicates and connects differently, so I tailor my approach to fit your unique needs, ensuring our work together feels relevant, grounded, and genuinely yours.
A Journey into Exceptional Patient Care
My own experiences in therapy as a teenager sparked an early curiosity about psychology, one that I've been following ever since. That lived experience shaped my deep commitment to creating a warm, authentic space where patients feel genuinely seen and supported. I bring that history and intention into my work, staying mindful of how my own perspective informs my approach and ensuring it best serves you in every session we share.
Personal Interests
When I'm not in session, you'll find me hiking, painting, or singing. I have a wide-ranging taste in music and a genuine love for live performance art. These creative and outdoor pursuits keep me connected to the kind of presence and expression I also value in my work with you.
