Hi there, and welcome. I work with adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Many of my clients struggle with self-doubt, relationship challenges, stress, or perfectionism, and want to create more balance and meaning in their lives. In our sessions, you’ll find a caring, collaborative space to explore what’s beneath the surface and build tools for change. I also offer evening and weekend appointments to make therapy more accessible for busy schedules.
In our work together, we help you move from just coping to feeling grounded and in control. Together we explore the push-pull between wanting change and resisting it. My approach is active and direct, using evidence-based strategies to help you feel present, less overwhelmed, and ready for change.
Finding the right therapist can feel difficult, and you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start. I find that clients who connect with me are those navigating anxiety, stress, or self-worth struggles that show up at work or in relationships. If you’d like to learn more about how we might work together, feel free to reach out.
