Philosophy of Care
I approach therapy and life with a strong sense of hope. Hope that all people can grow, strengthen relationships, and live with intention and authenticity. I believe that every person already holds the capacity for change and resilience; therapy with me is about uncovering and nurturing those strengths.
I primarily draw from Bowen Family Systems Theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), while taking a client-centered and collaborative approach to meet your unique needs and goals. Whether navigating anxiety, depression, identity concerns, or relationship challenges, I will walk alongside you toward meaningful progress and self-understanding.
I have had the privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. With me, you can expect a space that is curious, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. I’m committed to respecting and affirming your culture, identity, and spirituality, and advocating for you on both personal and societal levels.
Life is ever-changing, and the work of therapy is about learning to move with those changes rather than against them. In the words of Morgan Harper Nichols, “You don’t have to fix everything. You don’t have to solve everything. And you can still find peace and grow in the wild of changing things.” I look forward to exploring that growth with you.

Treatment For Anxiety
Psychotherapy or “talk therapy” can help people with anxiety disorders. To be effective, psychotherapy must be directed at the person’s specific anxieties and tailored to his or her needs.
