The life you want is within reach.

Feeling seen, heard, and understood is essential to healing. 

If you’re struggling with life’s challenges, I want you to know that you don’t have to navigate them alone. 

Whether you’re facing anxiety, big transitions, grief, or simply feeling stuck, I’m here to offer a space where you can feel safe, supported, and truly listened to.

Over the years, I’ve walked alongside people as they’ve found clarity, built resilience, and made meaningful changes—whether that’s finding their dream home, growing their family, stepping away from toxic relationships, or discovering a career path that brings them joy. 

Healing looks different for everyone, and together, we can find what works for you.

My practice is inclusive and welcoming to individuals of all backgrounds, including BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and those from diverse cultural experiences. 

No matter how painful or overwhelming your emotions may feel, you don’t have to carry them alone. 

I offer a space where you can explore, heal, and grow—at your own pace.

Therapy for Adult Individuals

Therapy is more than just addressing symptoms—it’s about uncovering the deeper meaning behind what you’re experiencing and creating lasting change. 

Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and help you reconnect with your most authentic Self. My clients often find greater balance, improved relationships, and a stronger sense of self-trust.

Therapy for Kids & Teens

Young people see the world differently, and therapy should meet them where they are. 

I create a space where kids and teens feel safe to express themselves, navigate challenges, and build the tools they need to handle life’s ups and downs with confidence. Whether they’re adjusting to change, working through loss, or struggling in school or friendships, I’m here to support them in feeling understood and empowered.

Therapy for Parents

Parenting is deeply rewarding—but also incredibly challenging. 

Sometimes, even the most dedicated parents feel lost, overwhelmed, or unsure how to best support their children. Therapy can help you understand your child on a deeper level, respond with patience and love, and create a stronger, more connected family dynamic.

Consultation for Clinicians

Being a therapist can be isolating at times. 

Whether you’re just starting out or have been in practice for years, consultation offers a space to reflect, deepen your work, and gain fresh perspectives. 

With my years of experience, I offer guidance and support to help you feel more grounded and confident in your role as a clinician.
