Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma

Great to meet you!

Do you sometimes feel like your worries are running the show? Mild anxiety can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to define your life. You are so much more than your struggles, and finding a therapist who truly sees you - your strengths, your goals, and your potential - can make all the difference. I’m here to help you build skills to manage your worries, feel more in control, and approach life with a renewed sense of calm. My personalized approach means we’ll focus on what works best for you, equipping you with tools to handle challenges, improve your coping strategies, and shift into a space of greater ease and confidence.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Anxiety is my specialty, and I take a compassionate, open-minded approach to help you navigate it. Whether you want to feel less overwhelmed, make decisions more confidently, or simply find more balance in your day-to-day, I’ll work with you to create a plan that feels doable and empowering.

What you can expect from our first session

I specialize in helping adults manage stress, anxiety, and finding balance. In our sessions, we'll use a relaxed and conversational style to explore therapeutic goals and develop personalized strategies. Treatment includes practical home tools ("homework" - practicing strategies at home) and regular sessions, aiming for significant relief within six months.
