Personal Experience & Biography
I believe healing and personal growth happen in the presence of understanding, connection, and trust. When people feel safe and supported, they can begin to make sense of their emotional experiences, deepen self-awareness, and identify what they need to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
I specialize in working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and
relationship challenges, and have over 7 years of experience in the mental health field. Most
recently, I have worked with neurodivergent adults, including those with ADHD and ASD, who are managing co-occurring concerns such as anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and childhood
trauma.
My approach is person-centered and integrative, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as CBT, EFT, and psychodynamic principles to provide personalized treatment. I aim to help clients understand not only how to cope in the present but also why certain emotional and relational patterns may have developed.
I strive to offer a space that feels supportive, collaborative, and grounded. If you feel we might
be a good fit, I welcome you to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation.
