Young adulthood is a complicated stage of life. The independence is exciting, but there is so much pressure to have your future ‘figured out’. Although there is a lot of advice out there, you need to make your own, authentic path. Therapy should be about discovering what is important to you and then working towards those values. Even when the world around us can feel hopeless at times, I can help you figure out where your path may lead.
As a Master's-level therapist with extensive training in mental health and social systems, I take a big-picture approach that goes beyond just managing symptoms. Using a Person-Centred style, along with proven methods like CBT and mindfulness, I offer a space where you can build the confidence to make real, lasting changes.
A fulfilling life rarely comes by accident. It can also be very difficult to build all by yourself. Taking that first step might feel scary, but small commitments lead to lasting change. If this resonates with you, let’s explore what’s possible together.

Sessions are led by your needs, not a rigid formula. You'll have a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings without being judged. That said, I often provide CBT skills to gradually adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness and creative activities can help you build awareness and find more meaning in your life.
