In session we will work on understanding factors that impact our mental health and learning new skills necessary to create change. This means going beyond talking and instead taking action. All steps take will be done at your comfort level and wishes

Together we will explore what is meaningful in your life, face painful situations, and create an action plan so that you can live a life you value. Throughout this process I encourage transparency and open communication, as this is your life not mine

Knowledgeable and empathetic. Continuing to learn is crucial so I can best support others. Everyone's emotions and experiences are unique and valid

I specialize in working with adults struggling with OCD, Anxiety, Depression, and trauma. This can appear as feelings of guilt, feeling like you're dragging through life, future tripping, or thoughts taking up residence in your mind rent free.

I've been there. My experiences have shown me that it is crucial to have a helping hand and be able to ask for help instead of trudging ahead alone

Therapy with me isn't about becoming someone "different.” There is no such thing as perfection, only progress. I believe you deserve to be heard, validated, and supported. Your story is yours and just as important as anyone else’s story.
