I specialize in helping adults heal from trauma and navigate life's most challenging transitions. Whether you are feeling stuck in past experiences or facing changes in the present, therapy can offer a path forward, one that feels steady, collaborative, and empowering.
My work is trauma-informed and rooted in evidence-based practices, with a strong focus on helping you experience meaningful relief and lasting change.
