Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm so glad you're here.

Life has a way of feeling overwhelming sometimes — thoughts spinning, emotions piling up, and it's hard to know where to start. If that's where you are right now, I want you to know there's a place to slow down, breathe, and work through it. That's what I'm here for.

I work with teens, young adults, and individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, low self-esteem, and body image struggles. If you're a teen or young adult feeling like your thoughts are too tangled to untangle alone, I'll help you build coping skills that actually fit into your real life — not just theories that sound good in a session and fall apart the moment you're back in the world. If you're working through anxiety or depression, we'll get curious together about what's driving those feelings and build tools you can lean on between sessions. And if past experiences or trauma are still shaping how you see yourself today, I want to help you process that in a space with zero judgment, at a pace that feels right for you.

My approach to therapy

My approach flexes to fit you, not the other way around. I draw from evidence-based methods like CBT and DBT, blending them based on what you need most — whether that's reframing unhelpful thought patterns, building emotional regulation skills, or simply having consistent support as you work toward feeling more like yourself.

What you can expect from me

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I don't take that lightly. Our first session together is about building trust and getting a feel for each other — there's no pressure to have it all figured out. From there, we'll set goals that actually feel achievable, create a safe space to process whatever comes up, and I'll be in your corner with encouragement and accountability the whole way through.

If you're ready to explore what's holding you back and start moving toward the best version of yourself, I'd love to work with you. Let's take this next step together.
