Nice to meet you

I offer a supportive, collaborative approach that helps clients build on their strengths while developing new tools for emotional well-being. Together, we’ll set realistic, time-related goals and incorporate accountability in a way that feels empowering—not overwhelming. I bring humor, objectivity, and a self-paced style to our work, creating a space that feels safe and encouraging. Therapy is a joint effort, and we’ll take time to celebrate progress along the way.
