Approach
I believe healing is not linear and often includes both setbacks and resilience. Change can be uncomfortable, but it is always possible.
You are the expert of your own life
Therapy is collaborative, supportive, and grounded in trust
Humor, curiosity, and connection can be powerful parts of healing
My style is warm, non-judgmental, and relational. I strive to walk alongside clients with encouragement, insight, and gentle challenge rather than criticism or pressure.
I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic awareness, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, harm reduction, relapse prevention, and SMART Recovery to support insight, regulation, and growth.
Therapy That Feels Human
Being a human is not always easy. Life can feel heavy, confusing, and stuck at times, but therapy does not have to be intense or overwhelming to be meaningful.
I believe growth can exist alongside humor, lightness, and genuine human connection, and that our struggles do not define us or determine how our story ends.
With over seven years of experience, I understand how vulnerable it can feel to seek support. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns, or unsure where to begin, my goal is to offer a space that feels supportive, grounding, and real.
As Carl Rogers said, "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change."
