I value working with individuals who are ready and willing to engage in the work needed to overcome their challenges. I understand the importance of meeting clients where they are at while also providing gentle encouragement and support when needed. Together, we work towards building resilience, enhancing self- awareness, and cultivating lasting change
With a focus on treating anxiety and depression, I specialize in providing compassionate and effective therapy to individuals aged 12 to mid-twenties. I believe in empowering clients to take an active role in their healing process. I advocate for tailoring interventions to individuals, utilizing evidence-based practices that align with each client's needs.
Starting therapy can feel daunting and overwhelming. Yet, here you are, exploring the possibility, and I'm genuinely glad you've taken this step. Your initiative to seek help is commendable. I'm here to offer support within my expertise and capabilities. I'm hopeful for the chance to collaborate with you and facilitate your journey toward healing and growth.
