Hello and welcome!

My Work with Clients

I believe therapy should feel like an exhale. A place where you can set down the weight you have been carrying and give yourself permission to slow down. I welcome individuals and couples from diverse backgrounds and experiences into an affirming and compassionate space to explore, heal, and find meaning. You can bring your questions, your pain, your hopes—all of it—and be met with compassion and without judgment. Our time together is guided by what matters most to you. Each session is personalized, guided by your goals, while also creating space to understand the patterns that shape who you are and how you move through the world. Together, we’ll look not only at the challenges of today, but also at the deeper story underneath. We will explore the meaning you’ve carried from your experiences. I meet you where you are, while gently guiding you toward where you want to be, always balancing support with challenge so you can begin to fully trust yourself and create meaningful lasting change. My approach is grounded in meaning-making and values-based practices, supported by evidence-based methods such as cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and mindfulness techniques. 

Working with Couples

From newly committed relationships to premarital and long-term partnerships, my work centers on helping couples move through daily challenges and grow their connection. I believe healthy relationships honor both individuality and togetherness. In our sessions, we’ll work on understanding yourself, understanding your partner, and understanding your relationship—three unique journeys that lead us to the heart of your emotional connection. Relationships thrive when there is emotional safety and genuine connection. I support couples in moving beyond surface-level conflicts toward deeper understanding, creating a foundation of trust and intimacy that lasts. Because therapy can be a place to discover what feels right for your relationship, when couples are unsure of what the future holds, I offer a space to explore uncertainty. Together, we approach those questions with honesty and care, working toward clarity, understanding, and a way forward that honors both of you.
