Great to meet you!

Most people who reach out to me have already spent a long time trying to hold everything together on their own. I work with adults moving through anxiety, depression, trauma, and the kind of stress that quietly becomes a permanent backdrop to daily life. Whether you're feeling stuck, navigating something painful from your past, or caught in patterns that keep pulling you back no matter how hard you try to move forward, I want to offer a space where that work can actually happen.

My approach to therapy

Together we focus on what is genuinely getting in the way and move through it at a pace that fits you. Much of the work centers on trauma and anxiety: processing experiences that have not fully settled, and building new ways of responding so the same moments do not keep holding the same power. I also work with people navigating depression, substance use, and family dynamics that have become strained or painful over time. Our work is always shaped around your goals, not a fixed formula.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is about getting to know each other. I will ask about your goals and what you are hoping to get out of therapy, and from there we will build an approach that is tailored to what you actually need. If you are ready to take that first step, I would love to hear from you.
