Great to meet you!

There's a particular kind of exhaustion that comes from constantly asking yourself what now, and you don't have to carry it alone. I work with women moving through the big transitions of life, becoming a parent, shifting careers, changing relationships, navigating health changes, the moments that can leave you questioning who you are. I also support adults and seniors facing anxiety, depression, and the stress of chronic conditions. My clients tend to be people who want a space where they can be fully themselves without judgment.

My approach to therapy

Together we work on helping you understand your own story more clearly, build on strengths you already have, and walk away with real tools you can use in everyday life. I go especially deep with women navigating major life transitions and maternal mental health, since that is where I have spent the most time and care. Our work together is a collaborative conversation, not a one way lecture, and clients who do best with me are ready to show up honestly and dig in alongside me. By the end, I want you to feel more like yourself again, with tools that actually fit your life, not just your diagnosis.

What you can expect from me

Our first session together is simply a conversation. You do not need to have the right words or a clear plan going in, we will slow down, get to know each other, and talk about what brought you here and what you are hoping will feel different. I want you to leave that first hour feeling supported and a little more hopeful than when you walked in. If any of this sounds like you, I would love for you to reach out and see if we are a good fit.
