“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.”

— Brené Brown

You’re here because you feel stuck — like there’s no clear path forward.

I see you. I’m here to help you:

  • Make meaning out of hardship

  • Find inner peace and balance

  • Discover and harness your strengths to create a more grounded, fulfilling life

My Approach

My Therapeutic Style:

In my practice, I primarily draw from Family Systems Theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and elements of Mindfulness. Regardless of the modality, I always prioritize your emotional safety and comfort. I view the therapeutic space as sacred, and I believe the relationship we build is central to the work we do.

My approach is strengths-based and trauma-informed, grounded in the belief that every person holds inner resources—even in the face of overwhelm. Together, we’ll access those strengths to help you manage stress, navigate emotional challenges, and move through life’s complexities. I support clients through a wide range of concerns including anxiety, burnout, family and relationship conflict, life transitions, and self-worth struggles. I also offer support for those impacted by chronic illness, caregiving, or long-term stressors.

My Clinical Experience:

Before starting my private practice, I worked for several years in a primary care clinic for children with chronic conditions and disabilities. This role gave me deep insight into how stress, grief, identity shifts, and family dynamics intersect with everyday life—especially in the face of long-term caregiving and complex medical needs. I had the privilege of supporting families from diverse backgrounds and life circumstances, which continues to shape the way I approach therapy: with cultural humility and respect for lived experience.

My Commitment to Clients:

While my professional roots are in healthcare, the skills I developed in that setting—crisis management, emotional attunement, system navigation, and relational depth—translate powerfully into the therapy room. I’m trained to meet people in moments of vulnerability, to sit with uncertainty without rushing to fix it, and to help you reconnect with your sense of agency—even in situations that feel stuck or overwhelming. That work isn’t limited to any one population; it’s the heart of good therapy, no matter your story. My clinical background allows me to meet you with steadiness, empathy, and an ability to hold space for complexity and possibility at the same time.

Above all, I strive to create a warm, welcoming space where you feel safe to show up as your full, authentic self. I bring openness, compassion, and—when the moment allows—a sense of humor. Therapy with me is a collaborative process; my role isn’t to fix you, but to walk alongside you as you reflect, grow, and move toward lasting change. Your commitment to the work will always be met with curiosity, respect, and wholehearted engagement.

My Values

Compassion

Compassion means meeting you exactly where you are—with warmth, curiosity, and without judgment. It’s the foundation of a therapeutic space where you feel safe to explore your pain, your hopes, and your truth. I believe healing begins when we are seen with gentleness, not pressure—and when we are offered the grace to grow at our own pace.

Collaboration

Collaboration means that our work together is a shared journey. I believe in building a strong, respectful partnership where your insights, strengths, and goals are central. Through open dialogue and trust, we will co-create a plan that empowers you to move forward in a way that feels right for you.

Integrity

Integrity means showing up with honesty, consistency, and respect—in both the therapeutic relationship and in my practice as a whole. You can expect me to be transparent, reliable, and aligned with my values, even in the hard moments. I hold your trust with care, and I’m committed to creating a space where authenticity is met with the same.

Cultural Sensitivity

Cultural sensitivity means approaching each client with humility, curiosity, and an openness to learning. I honor the ways identity, culture, and lived experience shape your story—and I’m committed to creating an inclusive, anti-oppressive space where all parts of you are seen, respected, and valued.

Therapy with me may be right for you if…

You are curious and open to exploring the deeper layers of your thoughts and emotions.

You are willing to sit with some emotional discomfort as part of your healing and transformation.

You believe there is space for humor and lightness in your therapy journey. Sometimes we just need a good laugh!

You are ready to build new coping skills, explore fresh perspectives, and strengthen your sense of self-compassion.
