About

I specialize in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety, depression, and trauma, with an approach rooted in collaboration and trust. I believe the most effective therapy happens when clients are active participants in their healing, which is why I work closely with you to set goals, provide feedback, and tailor each session to your unique needs and preferences. My practice is located in a peaceful, farm-based setting that offers a calming, grounding environment—far from the typical office. You'll also be welcomed by my dog Miko, who helps create a warm, safe, and comforting space for our work together. I integrate elements from EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and also bring an existential lens to explore what truly matters to you in life and therapy. I place strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship, which I believe is the cornerstone of lasting, meaningful change. The therapeutic relationship is at the heart of what I do—I value it deeply and see it as the foundation for meaningful and lasting change. If you're ready to begin your journey toward healing, growth, and deeper self-understanding, I’d be honored to walk that path alongside you. Specialties: I recognize that mental health challenges arise from a wide range of experiences, Grounded in an existential lens, I work in partnership with clients as they navigate their unique paths toward healing. I prioritize getting to know each client and their story, using this understanding to shape a collaborative and personalized therapeutic process that addresses their needs, values, and life goals.
