Great to meet you!

Feeling constantly “on,” overwhelmed, or stuck in your own head? I work with adults—especially busy professionals and caregivers—who struggle with anxiety, overthinking, and burnout. Maybe you’re replaying conversations at night, snapping at people you care about, or feeling like you’re never doing “enough.” Together, we’ll explore the thoughts, emotions, and patterns that are keeping you stuck and gently build new ways of coping so you can sleep more soundly, set clearer boundaries, and move through your days with more ease and self-compassion.

My approach to therapy

With over 10 years of experience, my style is collaborative, down-to-earth, and focused on what matters most to you. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing, which means we’ll use practical tools to understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and try out small, realistic changes between sessions at a pace that feels manageable and respectful of your life.

What you can expect from me

If you’re feeling overwhelmed but not sure where to start, you don’t need the perfect words or a polished goal. You’re welcome to schedule an initial session, where we’ll talk about what’s been hard lately, answer your questions, and see how it feels to work together. From there, we’ll decide on next steps and create a plan that feels supportive, sustainable, and truly tailored to you.
