Not accepting new clients
Not accepting clients. You constantly hold back in conversations, afraid of rocking the boat. Saying "no" feels impossible, so you overextend yourself—at work, in relationships, with family. You replay past conversations, wishing you had spoken up, but in the moment, fear takes over. You long for balance, to be heard without conflict, and to stop feeling responsible for others' emotions. Whether you're struggling in relationships, navigating life transitions, or caregiving for an aging loved one, you want to communicate with confidence, set boundaries without guilt, and build connections that feel fulfilling and true to who you are.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with a deep passion for helping adults and adolescents navigate life’s challenges. I have worked in outpatient, inpatient, and partial hospital settings, offering support for a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, self-harm, mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach is eclectic, blending trauma-informed, IFS, person-centered, relational and emotion-focused techniques, all grounded in the belief that each person’s journey is unique. I believe that healing doesn’t always have to be serious —sometimes laughter can be just as powerful throughout this process.

Do you find yourself stuck in cycles of overthinking, emotional shutdown, or self-doubt? You may replay conversations, second-guess decisions, or feel like your relationships lack the depth and connection you crave. Many of my clients experience frustration, guilt, or surface-level connections—feeling like they’re holding back or unsure how much of their true self to share. I specialize in helping anxious overthinkers untangle these patterns and build the confidence to create meaningful and fulfilling relationships.

I am a firm believer of implementing change behavior at any stage of life. Anyone can change with the right tools and support. There is always hope even when others don't feel hopeful.

Change breeds more hope for the future and maintains positive life changes that are sustainable and carry us through even the most difficult of times.
