Healing Through Creativity, Connection, and Compassion. Whether it's depression, anxiety, PTSD, emotional or behavioral challenges, family transitions, or addiction—my approach is trauma-informed, strength-based, and deeply compassionate. I welcome individuals of all genders, ethnicities, orientations, life experiences, and backgrounds. I tailor therapy to each person’s unique needs and goals and believe that healing is not one-size-fits-all. I offer a holistic, creative, and a person-centered approach that sees the whole individual—not just the issue.
