As a Registered Nurse-turned-therapist, I work with adults struggling with self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationships & dating, career and other life changes. Maybe you're always overthinking, comparing yourself to others, or doubting your intuition. I help clients understand why certain habits, relationship patterns, and reactions seem to repeat no matter what. Many of the clients I work with are healthcare professionals and students, athletes or bodybuilders, people navigating chronic illness or a new health diagnosis, and young adults who feel stuck, lost, or unsure of what they want out of life and their careers.
With over half a decade of clinical experience, I bring a unique, holistic perspective to therapy. My approach draws on an understanding of the brain, nervous system, and the interconnectedness of mental + physical health. By exploring how our minds and bodies work together, we can better understand the patterns behind our struggles and work forward.
Therapy with me is individualized and nonjudgmental. I ask thought-provoking questions to help you gain new insights, understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and see things from new perspectives. I balance warmth with directness, helping you turn insight into meaningful change while offering practical strategies when helpful.

After The Code: Support Group for Nurses
This therapist-led support group is for nurses experiencing burnout, compassion fatigue, and emotional exhaustion. Led by a Registered Nurse turned therapist with inpatient and outpatient experience, this group provides a safe, confidential space to process the emotional weight of nursing with others who understand healthcare culture. This group is for new and experienced nurses who may feel burned out, overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or guilty about rest and boundaries. Participants can expect to: Process grief, loss, and emotionally demanding experiences, reduce burnout, learn practical coping and boundary-setting tools, feel less alone and more grounded with a community that understands.
