There are moments in life when we feel stressed, lost, or overwhelmed. Feeling alone in our struggles can be disheartening. Whether you’ve come to this place because life circumstances have shifted, the day-to-day feels too strenuous to manage, or you’re hurting in some way, we all have unique strengths that can help us navigate these challenges. Therapy is one way to foster those strengths, and when we are given a warm and trusting therapeutic space, we can often find harmony and solutions to our struggles. I focus on helping individuals with anxiety, depression, stress, shame, grief, life transitions, or relationship struggles. I am here to collaborate with you and help you safely explore your past and learn to build a more meaningful and values-rich life instead of feeling the discomfort that “there’s something wrong.” I offer an empathetic, non-judgmental, and sincere posture to stay present with you as we gain insight into who you are and create goals that you want to achieve. My work is informed by an integrative approach, drawing from mindfulness-based, psychodynamic, CBT, and ACT practices. I’m committed to social justice perspectives and acknowledge this requires self-work. Broader systems can impact an individual's lived experience, and I aim to have each person feel heard, valued and empowered!
