My Approach

My approach to therapy is rooted in mutual respect and genuine collaboration, we’ll work together to navigate life’s challenges and help you move toward the life you want. I believe in the power of creativity in healing. Whether it's through art, books, or thoughtful conversation, we’ll use what speaks to you to explore emotions, build insight, and make meaningful changes. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, empowering you to rewrite the internal messages that may be holding you back.

I work with individuals 16 and older and have a deep passion for supporting military members and their families. I also strive to be a strong LGBTQIA+ ally, continually learning and growing in both education and advocacy. If you're looking for a supportive, open-minded space to begin or continue your journey, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
