Great to meet you!

It's exhausting to pretend everything is okay when your world feels like it's falling apart behind closed doors. You might be lying awake next to your partner feeling like strangers, struggling to move forward after a painful loss, or turning to alcohol just to quiet your thoughts at the end of a difficult day. Maybe you're a woman who has spent years putting everyone else first, only to realize you're emotionally drained, disconnected from yourself, and unsure how to ask for help. I believe you deserve more than just getting through each day, and my goal is to help you heal from what's hurting you, rebuild meaningful connections, and find peace in your life again.

My approach to therapy

I believe healing involves understanding what's causing your pain while making practical changes that help you feel better in everyday life. We'll work together to recognize the patterns keeping you stuck and find healthier ways forward, whether that means managing overwhelming thoughts, improving your sleep, or changing how you cope with stress. I'll help you process difficult experiences, develop tools to communicate your needs, and respond to challenges without feeling consumed by them. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, focused on helping you feel more confident and create lasting changes that matter to you.

What you can expect from me

You don't have to walk into our first session with everything figured out or feel pressured to share the most painful parts of your story before you're ready. We'll start with what's been weighing on you most, and I'll take time to understand how it's affecting your sleep, your relationships, and your ability to enjoy everyday life. There's no judgment here, and no expectation to unpack everything at once. Together, we'll identify what you'd like to change and begin creating a realistic path toward feeling more like yourself again.
