Great to meet you!

You might be used to holding yourself to high standards, showing up for others, and figuring things out on your own. But even when things look good on the outside, you may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of what comes next. Or maybe you're doing well and want to understand yourself better and keep growing. Wherever you are, therapy can be a space to explore what matters to you and what you want for yourself.

My approach to therapy

With a background in athletics and mental performance coaching, I understand the demands of balancing expectations, relationships, and personal goals. I work with people navigating anxiety, self-doubt, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the pressures that come with striving for more. My goal is to offer a space where you can better understand yourself, work through what gets in your way, and move toward the life you want to live.

What you can expect from me

You don’t need to have everything figured out when you walk in. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable being honest about your experiences. Together, we’ll work toward greater clarity about your needs and goals.
