Nice to meet you
Therapy with me is a space to slow down, breathe, and feel understood. I meet you where you are and help you make sense of your experiences. Together, we’ll explore what matters most and find steady ground for change. My approach blends person-centered, values-based, and cognitive-behavioral practices to support healing from trauma, substance misuse, mood challenges, and life transitions. You’ll be supported as you rediscover balance, confidence, and trust in yourself.
