I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families, offering a compassionate and collaborative approach to therapy. I believe that meaningful human connection creates the foundation for healing, growth, and the courage to make lasting change.

​

Drawing from evidence-based, trauma-informed, and strengths-based approaches, I help clients better understand themselves, navigate life’s challenges, and move toward emotional and relational wellness. My work is grounded in the belief that every person has the capacity for growth when given the right support, insight, and tools.
