Welcome!​

It is an honor to work with clients as they navigate challenges and pursue growth. Throughout my career, I have provided individual therapy to adults with a variety of emotional and behavioral concerns, as well as family and marriage counseling services. With a collaborative approach, I strive to help clients reach their personal goals and support meaningful change, while demonstrating compassion and unconditional acceptance as the foundations of treatment. Thank you for considering me for the opportunity to be your therapist.

Specializations and
Focus Areas

My practice focuses on helping individuals experiencing all types of anxiety disorders, stress, depression, low self-esteem, perfectionism, people-pleasing patterns, burnout, relationship conflict, social challenges, trouble making decisions, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and addiction recovery. I also support clients through life transitions and difficult circumstances, including college concerns, career decisions and changes, marriage, breakups or divorce, grief and loss, building new relationships, parenting, empty nest adjustments, retirement, managing health conditions, and family caregiving responsibilities.

Therapeutic Approaches and Methods

I am committed to utilizing evidence-based therapeutic interventions, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Motivational Interviewing. Techniques from the Gottman Method are incorporated to help individuals and couples improve their interpersonal and romantic relationships. Sessions include thoughtful feedback and practical guidance to strengthen insight and facilitate progress. Encouraging clients to discover a sense of purpose, clarify their values, and achieve deeper fulfillment is an important part of my work.
