Accepting new clients - Life can feel heavy at times. Anxiety can feel paralyzing, ADHD can leave you feeling misunderstood or “not enough,” and ongoing stress can make even everyday tasks feel exhausting. You may be navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, identity, self-esteem concerns, bicultural or BIPOC experiences, or patterns that keep showing up despite your best efforts. Therapy can provide a supportive space to explore these experiences, gain insight, and move forward in a way that feels more aligned with your needs and values. I aim to offer a space where we can work through these concerns together.
My approach is integrative and collaborative, drawing from CBT, ACT, DBT, EFT, SFT, and SRT, along with mindfulness-based and attachment-based perspectives. I explore the connection between thoughts, emotions, and the body, supporting you in gently shifting patterns that no longer serve you while building greater awareness and flexibility.
I strive to create a space that feels safe, open, and grounded in curiosity. You deserve to feel seen, understood, and supported in your experiences. We will move at a pace that feels right for you. If you’re ready, I invite you to book a free consultation so we can connect and see if we’re a good fit.
