I firmly believe in every individual’s inherent ability to grow and improve their quality of life. I find joy in supporting people through what ever life throws their way and aiding them to move toward a life that they want to live. Whether it be anxiety, depression, or stressors such as relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, communication challenges, low self-esteem, or anger management, we can take positive steps together to transform obstacles into opportunities and create a more resilient and fulfilling life.
I am committed to being genuine, empathetic, and equitable, and I aim to cultivate a therapeutic environment where clients feel understood and respected. My approach fosters a collaborative relationship, with the hopes of empowering people to explore the experience of being human and navigate paths toward healing.
Together we will explore evidence-based practices to help you enhance your life and cultivate behaviors that align with your goals and values. You are the expert in your own life, and I am here to offer guidance, support, and interventions tailored to your unique needs.
