About
The therapeutic process helps you decondition old patterns and uncover the authentic self waiting underneath. Therapy is never one-size-fits-all. You bring your own strengths, struggles, and story, and my role is to honor that by meeting you where you are. I use an eclectic style, blending different therapeutic approaches to fit what you need in each moment. I don’t believe in sugarcoating, and I won’t just sit back and nod. You can expect me to show up as a real person in the room—not a blank slate. Together, we will face what’s really going on and work to reframe it without judgment or shame. I specialize in working with compulsive behaviors and believe wellness goes beyond removing the substance or behavior—it’s about uncovering the underlying intention and restructuring patterns to meet those needs in healthier ways. My role is to meet you where you are, draw on your strengths, and move toward solutions.
