Great to meet you!

I specialize in supporting individuals who are balancing many life roles to recover from burnout, manage stress, and build sustainable ways to work, lead, and live. I bring my own experience in education, mental health, and leadership, giving me firsthand understanding of the pressures you face. Together, we focus on practical strategies that restore your balance, clarity, and resilience.

My approach to therapy

I take a practical, collaborative approach, helping you gain the insight to shift from unhelpful patterns, and make meaningful changes in your work and life. Together, we focus on strategies that reduce stress, strengthen boundaries, build resilience, and restore clarity so you can lead and serve with steadiness and purpose in your personal and professional roles.

What you can expect from me

In your first session, you can expect a safe, supportive space to share what’s weighing on you. I listen carefully, validate your experience, and help you feel understood without judgment. Together, we’ll start exploring practical ways to reduce overwhelm, gain clarity, and take steps toward balance — all with encouragement, insight, and a bit of humor along the way.
