Hi! As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I specialize in helping clients identify, challenge, and restructure unhelpful thought patterns that influence emotions and behavior. During our time together, we will focus on examining automatic thoughts, core beliefs, and cognitive distortions to develop more balanced and adaptive ways of thinking. We will work on a collaborative and structured approach, where you feel both supported and gently challenged. We will collaborate together to create a space where you feel you can safely question long-standing beliefs, strengthen cognitive flexibility, and build practical skills that promote lasting emotional and behavioral change.

One of the strongest predictors of success in therapy is the connection you share with your therapist, so finding the best fit is an important first step! I believe in the "therapeutic relationship," developing a relationship of trust and respect. We will work together to find the approach that best fits you—your needs, goals, and unique situation. My focus is to provide a safe place to be heard, understood, and supported. No matter where you are on your journey, I will meet you there, and together we will maximize your potential and develop a greater appreciation for yourself and your ability to reach your goals. Long-term change is a process. You possess within you all the skills and tools necessary for change. I assist you in discovering and learning how to utilize those tools in the most effective ways. I look forward to helping you find answers, direction, healing, and wellness.
As a therapist, I have a deeply held belief in the power of listening and acceptance. It can be scary to trust in yourself, especially when you are suffering. Therapy with me is a space to let go and be yourself: no masks, no judgment, just curiosity, acceptance, and compassion. I provide this space for clients of all backgrounds. My clients would describe me as calm, warm, and adaptable.
I am passionate about supporting clients healing from trauma, dealing with ADHD, and dealing with anxiety. I use ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) to help you unhook from difficult, tangled thoughts and feelings and to live according to your values. I also use EMDR to support clients healing from trauma. Together, we will collaborate to figure out what has you feeling stuck and what actions you can take to move toward a full, meaningful life.
Most major insurance plans are accepted here, so cost isn't what's standing between you and feeling better — and we'll handle the paperwork.
Our counselors are trained to help you work through what's hard — not just talk about it. When you're ready, we're ready.
