Are you feeling burnt out from dating, relationships, or a breakup that turned your world upside down? Do you feel like you overthink, self-sabotage, or just end up in the wrong types of relationships because you are afraid to be alone? My passion & mission is to guide you to feel confident, worthy, joyful, & optimistic about both being single & in finding your life partner. Or, is your anxiety, ADHD, self-doubt, or comparison to everyone around you making life hard to enjoy life to the fullest? I will offer you the psychoeducation, coping skills, support, & therapeutic strategies to make life not just manageable, but enjoyable!
Aside from my speciality of dating and relationships, some of you may identify as chronic over-achievers or are simply stressed, stuck, & overwhelmed with day-to-day life— If you are feeling out of alignment with being the best version of yourself, I will help you bridge the gap from where you are to where you want to be.
My 4 years of experience as a life coach has given me a solid foundation for my work as a therapist; I know what it's like to feel like you're meant for so much more out of life. My role as your therapist is to see your true potential even when you can't, I'm here to hold the vision for your dream life while to move toward becoming who you are meant to be.
