Great to meet you!

My clients are often high-achieving, caring individuals who spend so much time supporting others that they rarely have space to care for themselves. Many are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, relationship challenges, caregiving responsibilities, cancer, chronic illness, or major life transitions. They are ready to better understand themselves, build healthier coping skills, strengthen their relationships, and create a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling.

My approach to therapy

I help adults navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, life transitions, cancer, chronic illness, and caregiver stress. Using a compassionate, wellness-centered approach, I integrate evidence-based therapies to help clients build resilience, improve coping skills, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful, lasting change.

What you can expect from me

During your first session, you might feel like you are talking a lot. Remember this is your time and I am here to help. The first few sessions will be about building a therapeutic relationship and gather more information about you!
