If you tend to overthink, second-guess yourself, or feel emotionally drained by stress or relationships, you're not alone. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Together, we'll slow things down, make sense of the patterns keeping you stuck, and build practical tools to help you feel more confident in yourself and your relationships.
I also enjoy working with couples who feel caught in cycles of conflict or disconnection and want to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen their connection.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over six years of experience providing therapy and more than a decade of experience in social services. I've worked in both community mental health and outpatient settings, and my approach blends insight, curiosity, and collaboration with practical strategies you can use in everyday life. I believe therapy should help you better understand yourself while creating meaningful, lasting change.
