My clients are often…1) Individuals struggling with anxiety, racing thoughts, rumination, & high stress, 2) Young professionals navigating the stressors of life transitions, relationship issues, or burnout, the pressure of being in their 20's-30's, all while trying to build their career & find success, 3) Women navigating the stress of trying to conceive, being a new parent, + prenatal/postpartum anxiety & depression, 4) Individuals & couples struggling with conflict, communication, articulating their needs, or intimacy, and 5) Those looking for a therapist that doesn’t feel daunting or formal - someone they can be comfortable.
About me - I’m young, conversational, happy & very easy-going. I like to feel comfortable in our sessions and want you to feel the same way. I'm gentle, authentic, genuine and a judgement free zone to make therapy as easy as possible. With a structured yet relaxed style, I offer a collaborative approach & work with you to set goals that YOU want to achieve.
We’ll work together to find tangible solutions to current problems to better manage your symptoms. Once symptoms are better managed, we can dive a bit deeper to uncover root causes that got you here. I’ll ask questions, share psychoeducation, offer strategies & tools, balanced with an open space for you to grow & feel better. Reach out for a free consult!

Therapy is a space of connection and exploration. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy & then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. Sessions are interactive and filled with prompts to help expand your self-awareness, compassion and acceptance. I'll use a variety of treatment methods based on your needs, and how you respond to them over time.
