I am a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 3 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, depression, and parenting concerns. I help clients explore their emotions, strengthen their connections, and develop healthier patterns in their daily lives. My goal is to create a warm, collaborative, and grounded space where you can gain insight, build new skills, and feel more empowered in your healing journey.
