Do you feel overwhelmed in social situations, even with people you know? You might find yourself replaying conversations, avoiding events, or feeling like you have to hide parts of yourself just to fit in. If any of this resonates, you’re not alone, and therapy can help. I specialize in working with individuals who experience anxiety, including social anxiety, perfectionism, and self-doubt.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I offer a space where you don’t have to perform or explain yourself, where we can untangle the fears holding you back and help you feel more at ease yourself & in your relationships.
I am trained in psychodynamic therapy and incorporate a variety of modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), exposure techniques, and practical coping strategies. I also place great value on the emotional and relational aspects of therapy—those deeper, unspoken internal experiences that influence you.
I strive to bring warmth, thoughtfulness, and a genuine curiosity to our work together. Whether you're working through social anxiety, adjusting to a significant life change, or seeking a deeper sense of connection with yourself and others, I’d be honored to support you. I believe in honoring your strengths while helping you grow in ways that are sustainable
