Are you finding it difficult to manage symptoms of depression or anxiety? Do you often feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or burdened by the demands of everyday life? Perhaps you may be struggling with low self-esteem, difficulty setting boundaries, or prioritizing your own needs. I'm passionate about supporting teens (15+) and adults as they navigate these concerns, along with the complex emotions that accompany these experiences. With compassion and care, I approach therapy from an integrative perspective, drawing on a variety of therapeutic modalities.
I'm trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Polyvagal Theory, and I incorporate the use of mindfulness-based interventions into session. My hope is that you leave each session with greater clarity, deeper insight, and with practical strategies to help you function more effectively in your day to day life.
I recognize how difficult it can be to reach out for support and I commend you for taking this step. As finding the right therapeutic is essential to therapy outcomes, I invite you to schedule a free 20 minute consultation call to discuss any questions you may have and to learn more about how I can support you on your journey.
