I bring a warm, practical, and deeply relational approach to therapy, shaped by both clinical experience and real-life understanding. Growing up in a conservative household with a military father instilled in me a strong sense of responsibility, structure, and resilience—while also giving me firsthand insight into the emotional complexity that can live beneath discipline and duty. In my work, I blend evidence-based practices with compassion, helping clients feel truly seen while also supported in making meaningful, sustainable change. I value honesty, emotional safety, and practical tools that clients can carry into their everyday lives.
