Life can feel overwhelming when you're weighed down by anxiety, racing thoughts, or feelings of being stuck. You might be struggling with anxious thoughts, feeling like you're constantly worrying about things outside your control. Perhaps you're feeling isolated, misunderstood, or hesitant to seek help because of the stigma surrounding mental health. You want to feel calm, balanced, and empowered but aren't sure how to get there. What you truly need is a safe space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment and find support in managing both the emotional and practical challenges you face.
I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety, stress, and life's many uncertainties. Together, we work to reduce anxious thought patterns and build resilience so you can feel more at peace in your everyday life. My approach emphasizes whole-person care, addressing not just your mental health but your emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.
I want you to know that I care deeply about your journey and will always meet you where you are, creating a supportive, compassionate space where you can be your authentic self. Mental health is vital to overall wellness, and seeking help is a sign of strength. If you're ready to take that next step toward healing, I invite you to reach out.

Anxious thought patterns have been the topic I have found most success in treating. Helping individuals understand what they do and don't have control over is important in alleviating anxiety.

Through a combination of psychotherapy and medication management, I help clients develop a deeper understanding of their mental health, guiding them to focus on what they can control while learning to release what they cannot. My approach to care focuses on creating a warm, non-judgmental space where clients can feel safe to explore their thoughts and emotions.
