About
Oftentimes the hardest part about starting therapy is initiating the first session. I prioritize safety and aim to provide an affirming space for you to show up exactly as you are. I bring almost 15 years of experience working in trauma, therefore, my work is grounded in empathy and mutual respect. My approach is warm and compassionate—but also honest and direct. I believe in building authentic therapeutic relationships where clients feel seen & heard. I believe everyone can benefit from therapy, whether it’s to navigate a new life stressor or explore patterns stemming from childhood.
