When life feels overwhelming, it's easy to lose sight of yourself. Therapy offers a space to slow down, feel heard, and begin moving forward. I work with children (ages 6+), teens, and adults who feel exhausted by anxiety, overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or relationship patterns that leave them feeling disconnected from themselves and others. As a former elementary school teacher, I bring a unique understanding of child development, school-related challenges, and supporting families. Together, we'll explore the patterns keeping you stuck while building practical skills and confidence to create lasting change.
Therapy is a collaborative process, and we'll work together toward your goals. Whether that be establishing boundaries, fostering secure connections, changing self-talk, or identifying barriers and patterns that hinder your ability to experience a fulfilling and balanced life. I draw from evidence-based approaches, including ACT, CBT, and IFS.
Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but you don't have to have everything figured out before reaching out. My hope is that you'll feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are, feel understood, and leave each session with greater clarity. You can expect a relaxed, genuine, and collaborative approach, and when the moment is right, a little humour.
