Superpowers: Creating a safe, inclusive environment, positive attitude, open-minded, and honest

I am a therapist who is passionate about helping individuals build resilience, deepen self-understanding, and move toward meaningful, lasting change. I work with adolescents and adults, with a focus on anxiety, trauma, relationships, depression, and life transitions.

As a counselor, I emphasize growth, wellness, and empowerment. I use a variety of evidence-based approaches to help my clients better understand their patterns, strengthen their coping skills, and reconnect with their inherent strengths. My goal is to support you in not only navigating challenges but also expanding your capacity for clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being.

I strive to create a warm, grounded, and non-judgmental space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. My values are centered around inclusivity, authenticity, and optimism, and I approach each client with empathy and curiosity.

Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy going for walks, paddleboarding, spending time with my dogs, and being with family and friends.
