I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction recovery, and big life transitions. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can slow down, feel heard, and start to heal. Together, we’ll focus on building practical coping skills, confidence, and lasting change. I also support families raising children with autism, as well as individuals managing both mental health and substance use challenges.
