About

I specialize in helping individuals navigate the challenges of depression, grief, and trauma. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and empowered. Through evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and EMDR, I help clients develop coping strategies, process difficult emotions, and reclaim a sense of hope and stability. Whether you’re struggling with loss, life transitions, or past traumatic experiences, I am here to walk alongside you in your healing journey. My sessions are a balance of warmth, compassion, and directness. I want my clients to feel safe, heard, and empowered, so I bring an open and non-judgmental approach to every conversation. I specialize in depression, grief & loss, and trauma, and I understand how important it is to create a supportive space for healing.
