Life’s messy, relationships are complicated, and being human can feel overwhelming. You don’t need to figure it all out alone. I work with adults who want to understand themselves better, navigate relationships with confidence, and create meaningful change. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety that won’t quit, burnout that leaves you drained, or challenges in your closest relationships, I’m here to help. Therapy with me isn’t about sitting in silence or cliché advice you could find on Instagram. It’s about practical tools, real conversations, and building the skills you need to move forward.
We’ll work together to figure out what’s keeping you stuck and how to shift things in a way that feels doable. We’ll tackle the real stuff—miscommunication, mismatched expectations, or past wounds that keep showing up in the present. My work is grounded in empathy and understanding, but I’ll also challenge you when it’s time to grow.
Therapy shouldn’t feel like work you dread but like a space where you can breathe and show up as you are. Together, we’ll focus on what matters most to you and build a path that feels authentic. You deserve a therapist who sees you, not just your symptoms. If you’re ready to start, let’s connect. Change is hard, but it’s worth it.
