As your therapist, I offer a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts and emotions without judgment. I work with clients seeking healing, personal growth, and alignment with their values. Together, we’ll build on your strengths, develop coping strategies, and address patterns that limit growth. Using EMDR, CBT, and the Gottman Method, I foster resilience, self-compassion, and well-being and can integrate faith or spirituality into therapy if desired.
