You may be doing your best to keep everything together while anxiety, depression, or everyday stress leaves you feeling overwhelmed and unsure of where to turn. Perhaps your relationships feel strained, you're navigating the emotional demands of motherhood, or you find yourself putting everyone else's needs ahead of your own. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress management, maternal mental health concerns, and relationship issues. These challenges can also overlap with ADHD, bipolar disorder, family issues, panic disorders, women's issues, PTSD, infertility, or chronic conditions, especially when emotional wellbeing, relationships, and major life transitions begin affecting one another. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that understanding your experiences within the context of your relationships and family dynamics can create meaningful opportunities for growth. Together, we can explore what's been weighing on you, strengthen your existing resources, and develop healthier ways of coping that help you feel more connected, confident, and supported.

My style is direct, affirming, and supportive. I'll be honest with you while making room for your feelings, relationships, and the parts of your story that are hard to explain. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, stress management, maternal mental health, or relationship issues, we'll look for patterns that may be making life harder and strengths you can build on. Relational Therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help us explore how your connections and different emotional needs shape your reactions. The Gottman Method offers ways to strengthen communication, while Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) helps us better understand feelings beneath conflict. Cognitive Behavioral Family Therapy can help shift unhelpful patterns at home. We won't follow a rigid script. We'll work together on changes that feel useful in your daily life, at a pace that respects what you're ready for.

You don't need to arrive with a clear plan or know how to put everything into words. In our first sessions, I'll ask about what's been weighing on you, what your relationships and daily life look like, and what you hope might change. We'll decide on goals together, whether that's feeling less overwhelmed, adjusting to motherhood, finding a way through conflict, or feeling more like yourself again. Some sessions may give you room to sort through emotions; others may focus on a conversation to try at home or a small step toward a goal. I'll check in about what's helping and welcome your feedback as we go. My hope is that you feel more confident expressing your needs, more connected to the people who matter to you, and more grounded in yourself.
