I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 11 years of experience helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in OCD, trauma, anxiety, depression, and related concerns, offering a supportive space to find relief and connection. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy (cbt), acceptance and commitment therapy (act), and mindfulness-based strategies. I focus on creating a compassionate, person-centered environment where you feel empowered, supported, and truly seen.

I have my Master’s in Clinical Counseling from Bellevue University.

My goal is to make therapy feel relatable and encouraging while promoting growth, balance, and well-being.

I’m passionate about guiding clients toward resilience, self-compassion, and confidence. I enjoy helping couples build stronger communication and intimacy while supporting individuals through personal challenges. Together, we’ll focus on creating a lighter, freer, and more authentic life—one that feels aligned with who you truly are.

I believe in treating all my clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels.
