I spent about 10 years in the highest burnout sectors of social work. From this experience, I have developed a keen trauma-informed perspective, supporting populations navigating systemic barriers and compounded complex mental health. I have also worked with a large breadth of mental health diagnoses, within every category of the DSM, from a client-centered and strengths based framework. With this experience, and practicing therapy modalities that are transferable to various mental health difficulties, I would say that I am a generalist.

Together, we will liberate you from this story to create a new chapter: one that helps you live up to your full potential, a life in which you feel deserving of being heard, seen and loved.

You're feeling on edge. You’re also noticing feelings of sadness, frustration, and disappointment. Your mind is preoccupied with replaying events of the past, and this is negatively affecting your sleep and ability to focus in your day to day life. Could it be because you’re often doing so much for others, but others aren’t reciprocating? Or maybe you're feeling unheard and unsupported? Whatever the reasons may be, it’s lonely, exhausting, and clearly taking a toll on you, further amplifying your sense of disconnection from friends and family. You want change.

Are you a teen or young adult who looks “put together” on the outside, but internally feels anxious, overwhelmed, or constantly hard on yourself? You may be highly sensitive, deeply attuned to others’ emotions, and prone to overthinking, people-pleasing, or perfectionism. Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning and achievement-oriented, yet feel burnt out, emotionally flooded, or stuck in cycles of worry they can’t shut off. You might be navigating academic or performance pressure, life transitions, social or health anxiety, or a complicated relationship with body image, and want practical tools to feel calm and secure.
