Accepting new clients! Life in your 20s and 30s is full of transitions—new jobs, changing relationships, shifting identities—and it can feel overwhelming. Maybe you’re overthinking every decision, feeling emotionally drained, or struggling to connect with the people around you. Whether it shows up as anxiety, low mood, or patterns that leave you feeling stuck, you're likely just trying to find some peace and clarity. If you're tired of spinning your wheels and ready for something to shift, therapy can help you sort through the mess and feel more like yourself again.
I support young adults navigating anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. Therapy with me is a space where you can talk honestly, get curious about patterns, and build emotional tools that work in real life. Together, we figure out what’s actually helpful and what’s just weighing you down.
Therapy doesn’t have to feel awkward or formal. I offer a free 20-minute consultation so you can ask questions and get a feel for what working together would be like. Whether you're totally new to therapy or coming back to it, you're welcome here. Reach out by phone or email to get started!
