It takes courage to reach out for help.

My clients have already overcome so much to get where they are—but the journey hasn’t been easy. They are motivated to grow, heal, and create meaningful change, and they seek the guidance of a therapist who is both highly skilled and deeply caring. Together, we engage in a collaborative process where you are understood, respected, and supported while being gently challenged. I believe that true care, combined with experience and evidence-based expertise, is the foundation of effective therapy.
