Great to meet you!

I work with individuals navigating anxiety, major life transitions, and the emotional shifts that come with seasons like postpartum or motherhood. Many of my clients are thoughtful and self-aware, but still feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, pressure, or emotional exhaustion.

My approach to therapy

Therapy with me is a space to slow down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and begin to feel more steady and grounded in your day-to-day life. My style is warm, collaborative and grounded. I focus on helping you better understand your patterns, manage anxiety in a practical way, and reconnect with yourself with more clarity and self-compassion.

What you can expect from me

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it’s normal to feel unsure about what to expect. In our first session, we’ll take things at a comfortable pace and focus on what’s bringing you in and what you’re hoping for.

You don’t need to have everything figured out—this is a space where we can begin to make sense of things together. My goal is for the first session to feel supportive, approachable, and give you a clearer sense of next steps.
