I'm passionate about guiding individuals through tough times and helping them grow.

I help people with stress, trauma, depression, emotional pain and anxiety, and couples/families stuck in negative patterns and dissatisfied with their relationships. Individuals I work with are often hard on themselves and struggle to find balance between what they think they should be and their own needs and longings. I strive to help them get clear about what matters, what gets in the way of the life they want and to begin dealing with these obstacles. Couples/families I work with know they want something different in their relationships. I offer support during challenging conversations to increase understanding and allow change.

Stress highly depletes your energy to deal with problems. When feeling tired, frustrated and hopeless, it can seem like there are no solutions. In a safe, calm environment, where you feel accepted just as you are, you begin to develop self-compassion. By being gentle with yourself, coming from a place of non-judgement, you can attain so much. Trust allows you to open and us to work together to explore what is at the root of the problem. As you explore thoughts and feelings, you become more self-aware. Your energy increases and you become stronger, then able to learn effective coping skills to overcome challenges and to thrive.

Together, we can work on re-centering your life, managing the stress, and understanding your evolving needs.
Transitioning to motherhood can be one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences of a lifetime. Many new moms find themselves overwhelmed by the mental load, struggling with shifting body image issues and feeling the weight of a newfound identity. It’s perfectly normal to feel disoriented or even isolated during this time; you’re not alone in navigating these turbulent waters. It’s important to remember that many others share these feelings and that reaching out for support is a courageous and essential step toward finding balance and peace.

My clients are often people-pleasers who are stressed out and overwhelmed. They have often experienced a recent family or job change and are struggling to cope. They may struggle with guilt, worry, confidence, perfectionism, and feeling that they aren't enough. They want to manage their emotions better, make good decisions, and build healthy habits but they aren’t sure how to begin. Does this resonate with you? If yes, we might be a great fit for working together.

I love supporting the perinatal population, as well as those navigating ADHD, stress or anxiety.
Change can leave us feeling like our world has been flipped upside down. You may be stuck in an old pattern. You may feel there is no way forward in a relationship, despite your constant efforts. You may be having difficulty enjoying a new reality. You may be having a difficult time after a loss or trauma. You may be a new mom navigating this new world and new identity. And the more you bring into awareness your problems, the more you get the nagging feeling that something has to change. And most of all, you want to feel okay again - or even better than before. I’m here to help.
