Hopefully, I can convey the essence of who I am, why I love what I do, and and make navigating a sea of profiles a little less overwhelming. I am a therapist who brings both professionalism and a touch of quirkiness to the table, but I am also an individual who lives with anxiety and ADHD and knows that life can be difficult sometimes. Together we will confront obstacles, with a sprinkle of humor and a touch of psychoeducation, to address issues authentically and learn while we go. Together we can navigate the tough stuff and celebrate the victories that lie in between. Even if you do not know where to start, I'd love to help.
I am overwhelmingly passionate about helping people fall back in love with themselves, appreciating their uniqueness, seeing through rapid thoughts, understanding emotions, and making the changes they CRAVE. Let's talk about the things you want to work towards to make tomorrow look, feel, and be different.
Let's work through the heavy and find a way to put it down. If you're hesitant or you've tried therapy before and hated it, don't give up just yet-this just means you haven't found your fit. If you want a challenge, to laugh, dig deep, or better understand yourself, I'm your girl and I'm ready when you are. Let's take your life back.
