I work with thoughtful, reflective clients who overthink, people-please, or struggle with anxiety, stress, burnout, low self-esteem, or OCD (especially mental rituals). You’re functioning, motivated, and ready to grow, but life feels overwhelming at times. Therapy with me is warm, practical, and interactive—we’ll explore uncertainty, practice skills, work through emotions/past experiences, build calm and confidence. I’m trauma-informed and take a compassionate approach; I can support past experiences in a safe way.
I specialize in anxiety, stress, OCD (including mental rituals), self-esteem, and trauma-informed care for teens and adults. Sessions focus on practical tools, curiosity about patterns, and learning how to respond differently to stress, thoughts, and uncertainty in everyday life.
I understand the vulnerability it takes to walk into an office & share your struggles, especially if you’re used to pushing through on your own. I want you to immediately feel comfortable & welcome. You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. If you’re looking for a supportive space to practice, and grow, we may be a good fit.

I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, stress, and self-esteem. In our early sessions, we'll get to know your patterns and what's keeping you stuck, then work together on tools that fit your life. My goal is for you to feel understood, more confident, and better equipped to handle life with ease and authenticity.
