Psychotherapist

Therapy isn’t about fixing you. It’s about having a space where you can show up as you are, be real about what you’re going through, and find a way forward that feels true to you. I work with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, and together we’ll build clarity, strength, and confidence so you can move through life in a way that feels more grounded and alive. My approach I keep therapy straightforward, collaborative, and tailored to you. Sometimes our work will be about slowing down and unpacking your experiences, other times it will be about building practical tools you can use right away. I draw from CBT, mindfulness, and relational therapy, but I don’t force a one-size-fits-all model. I want therapy to feel useful and connected to your real life. My approach is flexible because you’re not a diagnosis, you’re a person. My focus I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, intimacy challenges, and life transitions. Many of the people I see feel disconnected from themselves, from their partners, or from what they want out of life. I help you sort through that, uncover what’s actually holding you back, and build a path forward that feels doable and empowering. Whether you’re working through stress, exploring your identity, or trying to strengthen your relationships, I’ll meet you where you are and help you move toward where you want to be. My communication style I’m calm, direct, and non-judgmental. I listen closely, reflect on what I notice, and sometimes point out the things you might be avoiding. Therapy with me feels like an honest, supportive conversation. I want you to feel safe being yourself, but I’ll also encourage you to push into the growth you’re looking for. Clients often tell me that I balance being patient and empathetic with being straightforward and real.
