You may be used to being the person who keeps everything together, while internally you're anxious, overwhelmed, overthinking, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Maybe you're navigating a major life transition, relationship stress, pregnancy or postpartum changes, fertility concerns, or simply realizing that the patterns you've relied on aren't working anymore.

I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up as you are without having to have everything figured out. I work collaboratively with clients to better understand what's happening beneath the surface, build resilience, and create meaningful change that carries into everyday life.

My approach is integrative, trauma-informed, and focused on the whole person. Rather than using the same approach with everyone, I draw from cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness-based, solution-focused, relational, attachment, and person-centered approaches based on your needs, personality, and goals.

I specialize in anxiety, women's mental health, relationships, and major life transitions, with advanced training in perinatal mental health and nutritional psychiatry. This includes supporting clients through fertility challenges, pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, identity changes, body image concerns, and the emotional and relational shifts that can accompany these seasons of life.

I tend to balance validation with gentle challenge. We'll work to understand patterns and where they came from, but we won't stop at insight. I want therapy to help you develop practical ways to regulate emotions, challenge unhelpful patterns, communicate more effectively, strengthen relationships, and feel more confident navigating your life outside of the therapy room.

You can expect me to be warm, collaborative, and engaged in the therapy process. I'm not a therapist who simply sits back and listens—I will ask questions, offer observations, help you identify patterns, teach skills when they're useful, and gently challenge you when it can help you grow.

Our first session is about getting to know you and understanding what brought you to therapy, what's currently getting in the way, and what you would like to be different. There's no expectation that you share everything at once. We'll work together to develop goals and a direction for therapy that makes sense for you.

Most importantly, I want therapy to feel useful. My goal is for you to leave not only feeling heard and understood, but with greater clarity about yourself and practical ways to begin creating change.
