I am a warm and collaborative therapist who provides support and practical insight. My integrative therapeutic approach creates a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their concerns, understand more about themselves, and learn better ways to cope with life's challenges. I utilize researched, evidence-based treatment approaches and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client.
