Life brings challenges that can leave us feeling anxious, depressed, fearful, or numb. Transitions and losses—whether through death, health changes, relationship shifts, or career struggles—can feel overwhelming. Chronic stressors may lead to feeling stuck and unable to cope. Some experiences leave deeper, traumatic wounds. Whatever has brought you here, I'm here to support you. Together, we can explore and process these feelings, helping you find healing, resilience, and clarity. You don’t have to face this alone.
I work with individuals 16+ across the lifespan and have a background in healthcare. I'm certified in Emotion-Focused Mindfulness and mindfulness-based therapies, including MBSR, MBCT, Self-Compassion, CBT, Grief and Loss, Motivational Interviewing, and Positive Psychology.
I offer a warm, non-judgmental space to explore your strengths and capacities (which you do have!). We’ll make connections between your experiences and emotions with an approach tailored to your needs. My hope is to support your healing so you can fully engage in a life filled with meaning, purpose, and joy.
