Great to meet you!

My path to becoming a therapist began with personal loss and deep grief, which reshaped how I understood connection and healing. As an educator, I was drawn to supporting students emotionally, but I realized my passion lay in helping people navigate inner struggles more directly. Therapy helped me confront fear and embrace change. That experience, combined with my background in education, laid the foundation for my clinical work. Today, I integrate empathy, resilience, and trauma-informed care to support individuals, couples, and families on their healing journeys.
