Feeling stuck?
Let’s find the next step together!
I provide modern, effective therapy.
I bet what you really want to know is whether I have the skills and experience to help you improve your life.
I can wholeheartedly say YES!
I’m really passionate about helping people with substance use challenges and relationship struggles. After many years and thousands of sessions, I’ve learned so much and gathered some great insights along the way. With my advanced training in these areas, I’m excited to work with you and provide modern, effective therapy that really makes a difference!
My growth through personal life struggles is what helps me relate so deeply with clients.
I became a therapist because I know how hard it is to reach out for help when you truly need it. I had times when a great therapist made all the difference for me, and I strive to give that back to my clients.
My life experiences led me to become the psychotherapist I am today.
Being a Psychotherapist is an honor
I love guiding people toward figuring stuff out and seeing them finally getting the life they desire. The most rewarding thing about being a psychotherapist is providing encouragement during life's challenges.
I am 100% committed to helping you get back to living life! You need to be ready and work hard, but I know with my help, you can get moving again towards a life you love!
I have a natural ability to:
Help people feel comfortable
Uncover what's under the surface
Explain mental health symptoms in an easy-to-understand way
Help clients heal their past and manage the present
People who know me often say that I am a good listener who can sit with people even when things feel dark or hopeless.
What’s it like to work with me?

I’m here to support you with empathy and understanding, and I’ll tailor our sessions to suit your individual needs and goals. Let’s work together to find what feels right for you!
As we work together, you can count on me to treat you with respect and understanding. I really value open and honest communication, so feel free to share your thoughts and feelings. I’m here to listen and support you as we explore the best strategies for your personal growth.
Whether you’re facing challenges from past experiences, navigating relationship issues, or simply looking to find a deeper sense of purpose, I’m excited to help you create a path toward healing and a more fulfilling life. Our time together is all about giving you the tools and confidence to make positive changes while ensuring you feel supported every step of the way!
Identify your strengths.
You're taking a brave step by coming to therapy to address what's not quite right in your life.
Together, we will also uncover and celebrate your strengths, which can be powerful tools in transforming your challenges into opportunities for growth.
Allow yourself to dream.
Give yourself permission to dream. We will take some time to envision your ideal life.
We will connect with what is important to you and what you value the most, guiding your journey in that direction.
Decide your next steps.
Let's figure out your next steps together! I'm here to help you create a clear and achievable plan so you can reach your goals and get the most out of your therapy journey.
