Individual Therapy
Find warm, relational support that’s deeply attuned to who you are
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in a deep respect for your lived experience. Together, we’ll work to help you understand yourself more fully and move toward greater emotional well-being and self-actualization. Many of the people I work with seek support for:
Depression and anxiety
Relationship challenges and attachment wounds
Substance use and patterns that no longer feel aligned
Periods of transition, personal growth, and identity shifts
If you’re hoping to address OCD, we’ll integrate Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based approaches to reduce distress and increase psychological flexibility.
Together, we’ll strengthen your ability to stay grounded in your body, clarify what truly matters to you, and build skills that help you navigate trauma, anxiety, and intense emotions with greater ease and self-compassion.

Child & Adolescent Therapy
Supportive, creative therapy for children and teens
In our work together, we’ll create a supportive, engaging space where you can safely explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Because young people often express themselves beyond words, we use art, clay, sand tray, and play-based approaches to help make sense of emotions in a way that feels natural and comfortable.
As we move forward, we focus on:
Identifying and naming emotions
Practicing coping skills that truly work
Building confidence and emotional resilience
We also pay close attention to attachment patterns—how you relate to parents, siblings, peers, and teachers—and use our time together to develop healthier, more secure ways of connecting. Our goal is for you to feel safe, understood, and empowered in your relationships.
Supporting adolescents through identity and independence.
When working with adolescents, therapy becomes a place to explore who you’re becoming. Together, we clarify your values, interests, boundaries, and goals, helping you build a strong sense of identity and direction. We make room for conversations about stress, friendships, family, and the pressures of growing up, while practicing skills that help you navigate life with more confidence and self-trust.

Family Therapy
Collaborative, Compassionate Family Therapy
In our family therapy work, we begin by understanding how each of us—parents, caregivers, and children—shapes the family system. Together, we notice patterns that may have developed over time and explore how your own early experiences may show up in your parenting now. As we do this, we build practical skills and deepen clarity around the values and goals that guide your family.
Our sessions give us space to slow down and respond differently to moments of conflict or distress. When your child shuts down, acts out, or seems “stuck,” we work together to understand the underlying needs and emotions driving those behaviors. Instead of escalating, we practice ways of connecting that help everyone feel seen and supported.
Over time, we make gentle, meaningful shifts—through language, routines, emotional awareness, and communication. These small changes often lead to greater flexibility, less reactivity, and a stronger sense of connection. We move away from blame or frustration and toward curiosity, compassion, and teamwork.
As we learn to regulate emotions together, your family builds a home environment that feels calmer, safer, and more supportive for everyone.
