I view therapy as a collaborative journey, a shared exploration where healing and growth can flourish. My clinical approach is flexible and personalized, as I firmly believe that tailoring therapy to the unique needs of each client is the path to positive change.

Creating a safe and non-judgmental space is at the heart of my practice. I understand that it’s within this nurturing environment that true transformation can take place. My commitment to my clients is unwavering as we work together to heal and evolve in their lives and relationships.

My primary goal is to equip clients with healthy coping skills and empower them to make positive changes in their thoughts and behaviors.

In my therapeutic approach, I draw from the wisdom of cognitive-behavioral therapy and person-centered techniques. This amalgamation allows me to adapt and tailor therapy to suit the unique needs of each client.

I specialize in supporting clients navigating life transitions, those who might be feeling ‘stuck,’ anxious about change, or individuals adjusting to new chapters in their lives.

“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” – Carl Rogers

My ultimate aim is to guide clients towards embracing self-acceptance, understanding that it’s through this acceptance that profound and lasting change can truly unfold.
