Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
Hello — I’m so glad you’re here. I welcome individuals from all identities, backgrounds, and walks of life. My approach to psychotherapy is eclectic and tailored to each person’s unique experiences and needs. I draw from a variety of methods—including psychodynamic, attachment-based, Rogerian, CBT, REBT, and trauma-informed approaches—while also considering the impact of relationships and larger systems in your life to support a deeply personal and meaningful healing process.
I strive to create a space that is allied, compassionate, and non-judgmental, where you feel safe to explore, grow, and be curious in your therapeutic journey. I also welcome and honor your personal philosophies, spiritual beliefs, and religious practices—inviting them into our work together as valuable parts of your healing and self-discovery.
