Professional statement

Whether you're looking to manage symptoms of anxiety or depression, heal from past trauma, navigate a difficult life transition, or simply want to deepen your self-awareness, I’ve got you covered. I provide a warm and welcoming virtual space for individuals to explore their innermost emotions, beliefs, and desires for their lives.

My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy and authenticity. I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), somatic therapy, and mindfulness-based practices, and I'm not afraid to sprinkle in a little bit of laughter and lightheartedness to help ease the therapeutic process.

I know that life can be a bit of a maze sometimes. But with a little guidance and some patience, we can find the right path that works for you.

So come as you are, and start our journey towards a better you. If you're interested in connecting, schedule a consultation or message me. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

Additional session information

Therapist's note

As a therapist who doesn't accept insurance at the moment, I acknowledge this creates barriers to accessing care and reinforces systemic inequalities and privilege, as those who are able to afford it have greater access.

Unfortunately, insurance companies do not reimburse therapists at a rate that reflects the true value of mental health treatment. This is not a sustainable situation for the mental health profession, and many therapists are advocating for change.

Additionally, there is a 24-hour cancellation fee of the full cost of your session.

This asserts the value and importance of mental health treatment and helps combats stigma surrounding mental health and therapy, as it reinforces that therapy is a valuable part of healthcare.

By holding clients accountable for their appointments, clients are encouraged to prioritize their mental health. This fosters a strong therapeutic relationship built on mutual respect and trust, which is essential for effective therapy.
