Get To Know Me
What is your style/approach to therapy?
My style is warm, calm, and attentive. I believe healing happens in the space where we can be fully seen and where our whole experience is welcomed. I work well with people who are navigating change, loss, illness, or uncertainty and want a place to reflect honestly and gently. Together, we explore what matters most to you, honoring both your pain and your inner strength. I draw from mindfulness, relational therapy, and your own lived wisdom to support growth at your pace. Whether you’re grieving, facing a health diagnosis, caring for someone you love, or simply feeling unmoored by change, my goal is to offer a steady, compassionate presence and help you reconnect with your sense of meaning and resilience.

Work HistoryI’ve spent my career walking alongside people through some of life’s most tender and challenging moments. Before opening my private practice, I worked as an interfaith hospital chaplain, supporting patients and families facing serious illness, loss, and major life changes. That work taught me how to stay grounded and present in the midst of uncertainty, and to meet each person with genuine respect for their unique beliefs, identities, and ways of making meaning. As a licensed psychotherapist, I’ve supported individuals navigating grief, chronic and acute illness, caregiving, spiritual questions, and major life transitions. My background weaves together psychotherapy, mindfulness, and spiritual care, allowing me to offer a deeply compassionate, integrative approach to healing.
