I provide a warm and safe environment for clients to process their thoughts and feelings and work collaboratively to identify and mediate stressors. I am a strong advocate for self-care and guide clients in understanding the importance of caring for themselves while managing phase-of-life issues. Taking the first steps to initiate therapy can be challenging. I look forward to collaborating with you and learning about your experiences and personal goals.

I wanted to become a therapist since I was in the 10th grade. My mother is a therapist, and that is one of the main inspirations for the work. I enjoy engaging with people, understanding their experiences, and offering support.
I recharge through journaling. It helps me to refocus on my goals and identify areas where I may need to implement more self care and compassion. I enjoy spending time with my dog, Zen.
I have a 3 year old Pit Bull named Zen. The funniest thing about Zen, is that his personality is the exact opposite of his name. He is very active and vocal!
