My ideal client is that person who's caught in the constant mental chatter of "did I say the right thing?" - the one who's always making sure everyone else is okay while feeling one deep breath away from overwhelm. Whether they're an adult tangled in patterns of checking and re-checking, lost in spirals of "what-if" thoughts, or a teen whose heart races every time a teacher might call on them, they're ready for change. They're looking to move beyond the exhausting cycle of people-pleasing and create a life that feels more like them - not just who everyone else needs them to be.

It can be difficult to open up and talk about your life stressors to someone you don’t know. Sometimes we can feel unheard or alone and just need someone who can be a helping, nonjudgmental, and listening ear. The hardest part can be finding the words to express ourselves and process what can feel like a jumbled mess and you just need someone to help put the scattered puzzle pieces together to create a beautiful picture. Aristotle said it best, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” I can help with building coping skills, work on effective communication, self-expression, processing trauma/grief, and mindfulness.
