Together, we’ll explore the deeper drivers behind your behavior and build practical, lasting strategies for change. I help patients learn to manage overwhelming emotions, set healthy boundaries, and reduce stress in ways that feel authentic and sustainable. I am very personable, warm, and empathetic. I use humor (when appropriate) to really engage with my patients. I am very open and honest, encouraging my patients to do the same. I am also a direct communicator.

I’m especially attuned to patients who may feel hesitant or anxious about starting therapy. My approach is attachment-focused and experiential, emphasizing a strong therapeutic connection as the foundation for meaningful work. I have experience working with individuals from a variety of cultural backgrounds and view your personal history as essential to understanding your present experience. I also practice affirmative counseling and have supported many LGBTQ+ patients in navigating their identities and mental health with care and respect.

I offer a warm, welcoming space where you can feel safe to be yourself. My style is non-judgmental, direct when needed, and grounded in empathy. I believe in your capacity to heal, build on your strengths, and move toward the life you want. Therapy is a collaborative process, and we’ll work together to create real movement toward your goals.
