Great to meet you!

Some feelings are easier to carry quietly than to say out loud, and after a while the quiet starts to feel normal. I work with adolescents and adults, and I also support families, who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, eating disorders, and relationship challenges, along with the life transitions that stir them up. I want you to feel heard and understood here, and to start seeing the strengths you already have.

My approach to therapy

Together, we will build a way of working that is warm, collaborative, and shaped around you. Many of the people I see are carrying anxiety, depression, or the weight of something painful from their past, and some are working through an eating disorder. Our goal is for you to understand yourself better, make sense of difficult emotions, and leave with healthy coping skills you can actually use. I believe growth happens when we approach ourselves with curiosity rather than judgment. I work best with people who want to show up as they are and are ready to become the person they want to be, at their own pace.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other. We will talk about what brings you to therapy, what you have been experiencing, and what you hope to work toward. There is no pressure to share everything right away or to have all the answers. If you are ready to take a first step toward growth and healing, I would love to hear from you.
