I work with clients who may feel alone, disconnected, and overwhelmed, often burdened by family dynamics that have forced them to be the "strong one." They may struggle with anxiety, past trauma, and have neglected their own needs, leading to exhaustion and confusion. They seek a safe space to explore their feelings and learn to prioritize their well-being. Together, we’ll work on managing anxiety, setting boundaries, and cultivating self-compassion. If you’re ready to reclaim your sense of self and find balance in your life, I’m here to support you on this transformative journey toward a healthier, more fulfilling future.

Feeling out of control over what you care about the most can make you feel like your world is crumbling around you. Feelings of worry, fear, confusion, anger, and sadness can make your relationships, parenting, work, or your education seem impossible and feel like a heavy burden. My passion is helping people realize or remember that they are capable, strong, worthy, and significant. I look to understand your pain and concern, and I want to tell you that you CAN overcome these obstacles that come your way in life. Having peace of mind is a mind frame.

Life is a beautiful journey that allows for individuals to expand, and grow! From the moment a person enters this planet they have before them a blank canvas, and a set of innate gifts. Throughout the stages of human development, each person learns how to maneuver around the world, and to establish an identity. From time-to-time individuals may come across a detour, such as an identity crisis. It is during these times when individuals may feel that their life is falling apart. Therapy supports individuals with finding their internal compass, and establishing stability in their life.

Honestly, life is hard and filled with many challenges. Everyone could use help navigating these everyday challenges or traumas. I embody an authentic and real approach to therapy. My ideal client comes to therapy ready to look within themselves. This may look like taking risks, expressing their authenticity and being open to applying skills learned in therapy, outside of the room. It is important that the client remembers to bring their true self into the room, flaws and all. Only then can we begin to heal, grow and thrive.
