What's My Approach to Therapy?

If you’re here, you might be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unsure why things feel “off” even though life looks okay on the outside. Maybe you’ve been holding it together for everyone else, but you’re starting to realize you can’t keep doing it alone.

I work with individuals who are tired of surviving and ready to feel more grounded, understood, and supported. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. I believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you don’t have to perform, explain everything perfectly, or have all the answers.

In our work together, I focus on helping you better understand your emotions, patterns, and stress responses while also building tools you can actually use in daily life. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care, while always tailoring therapy to you, your goals, your pace, and your lived experiences.

I strive to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, or feeling disconnected from yourself, we’ll work together to help you move toward clarity, balance, and meaningful change.

My Practice & Services

I offer both virtual and in-person therapy for children, teens, and adults to meet clients where they are most comfortable. Telehealth sessions provide flexibility and accessibility, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, while in-person sessions allow for hands-on, interactive, and play-based work—especially helpful for children and teens. Whether we meet virtually or in person, I tailor each session to the client’s age, needs, and goals, creating a supportive and engaging space that promotes connection, growth, and meaningful progress across all stages of life.

On the Fence About Going to Therapy?

If you?re on the fence about starting therapy, you?re not alone. Many people reach out feeling unsure, wondering if their struggles are serious enough. If therapy will actually help, or if now is the right time. It?s okay to have questions or mixed feelings. Starting therapy doesn?t mean something is wrong with you; it means you?re open to understanding yourself better and getting support before things feel overwhelming. You don?t have to have everything figured out to begin, curiosity, honesty, and a willingness to show up are more than enough.

How My Own Struggles Made Me a Better Therapist

My own personal struggles are a big part of what led me to become a therapist and continue to shape how I show up in this work. I understand firsthand how hard it can be to ask for help, to feel overwhelmed, or to carry things quietly while still functioning day to day. Because of this, I approach therapy with deep empathy, patience, and respect for each client?s process. I don?t believe in rushing healing or minimizing pain. Instead, I focus on creating a space where clients feel genuinely understood, supported, and empowered to move forward at their own pace.
