Professional statement
I’m a clinician with over 14 years of experience working with both children and adults across a variety of settings. I support individuals and families navigating life’s challenges, and I take a thoughtful, strengths-based approach to helping clients move toward meaningful change.
My work is grounded in collaboration. I believe that you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to support you in building insight, confidence, and practical skills to navigate what you’re going through. I draw from evidence-based approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, mindfulness, and client-centered care, tailoring each session to fit your needs and goals.
Together, we’ll focus on creating a plan that feels both manageable and effective, helping you move forward with greater clarity and resilience.
