Licensed Psychologist

Verified

“I support adults who may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, or stuck in patterns they’re finding difficult to change. My work combines a warm, supportive approach with CBT, EMDR, and other evidence-based methods tailored to each person.”

About Me

Starting therapy can feel difficult, especially when you’re unsure how to explain what you’re experiencing. I aim to make therapy feel safe, supportive, and comfortable, without pressure or judgment. We can begin with what feels most important to you and work from there.

Approach

My approach is collaborative, practical, and tailored to each person. I draw on CBT, EMDR, and trauma-informed approaches, depending on your needs and goals. Sessions may focus on understanding patterns, managing emotions, processing difficult experiences, and developing healthier ways of coping.
