My approach to therapy is client-centered, trauma-informed, and as real as it gets. I’m passionate about helping clients understand their brain and emotions using real-life language. I believe that with the right support and encouragement, everyone has the potential to lead a fulfilling and satisfying life. Even if it feels impossible right now, you’ll be met with understanding, empathy, and encouragement, and together we’ll take small steps to build your confidence and self-trust, and the belief that change is possible.

I enjoy working with children, teens and women experiencing generalized anxiety, separation anxiety and difficulty regulating their emotions. Through my own personal experiences with anxiety, I’ve learned how powerful it can be to better understand our brains, our emotions, and the purpose anxiety can serve in our lives. I truly believe that psychoeducation—understanding the “why” behind behaviors and thought patterns—can unlock powerful healing and transformation.

I’m also dedicated to coaching parents through behavioral and emotional challenges their children are experiencing. My goal is to help parents strengthen their approach and connection with their children in a way that creates sustainable change, with the understanding that growth does not happen in a vacuum—it requires support, consistency, and clear boundaries.

You are the expert in your own life, and I feel honored to walk alongside you, supporting changes that help you feel more aligned, fulfilled, and connected to the life you want to live.
