I am so glad to be here with you. I know we've not met yet, but I can tell that you’re smart, capable, and always trying to do the right thing and you're rocking it—but inside, it feels like you’re just able to hold it together. You’re tired of the constant pressure, the rat race, the self-doubt, the overwhelm—especially when it shows up in your parenting, your relationships with others as well as the one with yourself. Deep down, you want to feel calm, confident, and more like yourself again. You’re ready to break painful patterns and build something better—and you want someone who really gets it to walk alongside you while you do.
I help people untangle self sabbotage, irritibility and overwhelm, self-doubt, and emotional reactivity so they can show up with more ease, clarity, and confidence. Using approaches like CBT, IFS, and EMDR, we’ll work together to make sense of what’s going on and build the tools you need to feel steady and empowered in in your life and relationships.
I will listen non-judgementally and guide self discovery. I always aim to create safe and cozy sanctuary that is equally as accepting of your joy as your struggles. I want us to create a therapeutic relationship that supports the essence of you and allows your authentic self to shine. Importantly, I want you to leave your sessions having felt seen & uplifted

I have specialist training in CBT, EMDR and use ACT and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Here's what to expect: I'll always ask you if there is anything you would like to prioritize in the session. Because this will be fresh in your mind and will often lead to a 'trailhead', showing a pattern, empowering us to relate to the difficulty, or distress in a new way, using the modalities listed.
