Originally from the Midwest, I have spent much of my life living in diverse regions of the US and living internationally, including time in Italy, Holland, the Middle East, Central America, and the Caribbean. These varied cultural and geographic experiences inform my practice, helping me connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds. I recognize that while each person’s story is unique, shared human experiences create powerful opportunities for connection and growth.

My approach to therapy

I approach therapy as building on each person’s inherent strengths, taking incremental and sustainable steps toward improved mental health and overall wellbeing. For me, therapy is not only about addressing challenges, but also about deepening self-understanding and developing insight that fosters long-term resilience. My style is: Warm, Direct, Open Minded.

What you can expect from me

In early sessions, I prioritize gaining a clear understanding of each client’s current circumstances while exploring the significant experiences that have shaped their life journey. I work to create a supportive and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.
