Life can indeed feel like a relentless roller coaster with its ups and downs, stressors, and uncertainties. I work with adults of all ages to navigate this journey, specializing in young adults and college students. I frequently help clients manage anxiety, self-esteem issues, relationship challenges, workplace or school stress, burnout, ADHD, trauma, and substance use. Whether it's making significant life decisions, managing relationships, or taking care of yourself, I provide a supportive space to help you build resilience and align with your personal growth.
As a therapist, I offer a safe and compassionate environment for clients. My trauma-informed approach integrates yoga-based mindfulness and somatic healing with a range of modalities, including CBT, psychodynamic therapy, DBT, and more. By tailoring my techniques to individual needs, I support emotional engagement and growth.
I understand that taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, but please know that you are not alone in this journey. I warmly invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation with me.
