I specialize in working with teens and women navigating anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and the lasting impact of trauma. Many of the clients I work with struggle with high-functioning anxiety, self-doubt, people-pleasing, and relationship stress. My goal is to help you feel more confident, emotionally grounded, and secure in who you are. I am committed to providing LGBTQ+ affirming care and creating a space where clients of all identities feel safe, respected, and understood.
I bring empathy, honesty, and humor into the therapy room, because healing doesn’t have to feel intimidating or overly clinical. Therapy should feel like a safe place to be fully yourself, while also helping you move forward. My approach is warm and personal, while also being direct and growth-oriented.
I believe therapy should lead to meaningful change—not just temporary relief. If you’re ready to feel more calm, confident, and connected to your life and relationships again, I would be honored to work with you!
