Nice to meet you
I became a therapist to guide people to healing and fulfillment and help break unhealthy patterns and cycles. I help clients across the lifespan with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger management, depression, emotion regulation, motivation, self-esteem, OCD, and confidence. I approach each individual through a person-centered, trauma-informed lens, with sprinkles of humor where appropriate. I believe you are the expert of your story and have strengths that will help you overcome challenges and obstacles.
