Whatever it looks like for you, worrying, procrastination, and perfectionism don't have to be your permanent roommates. I'm here to help you find calm in the chaos of overthinking.

You may be navigating a season of change that has left you questioning who you are, what you need, or where you're headed. Career changes, parenthood, grief, recovery, or identity shifts can make old ways of coping feel less sustainable. My own experiences with early motherhood, family addiction, loss, and difficult life circumstances shape the compassion I bring to this work. I believe therapy is about understanding the whole person and helping you reconnect with the strengths you already carry.

Feeling emotionally overwhelmed doesn’t always have a clear reason. Sometimes it builds gradually from ongoing stress, complicated relationships, or the quiet weight of expectations. You may be balancing many roles and, somewhere along the way, feel disconnected from parts of yourself. This can show up as anxiety, emotional numbness, irritability, isolation, low motivation, or self-doubt.
For many people, especially those from collectivist or immigrant communities, mental health and emotions were rarely discussed. Seeking therapy can feel unfamiliar or stigmatizing, which can make the experience feel even more isolating.

In a world more connected than ever, many of us are feeling increasingly isolated. Constant digital noise can create a sense of comparison, performative connection, and emotional disconnection.

I believe that meaningful growth begins with open-mindedness, collaboration, & a non-judgmental attitude. In my practice, I offer a welcoming & accepting space where clients can safely explore their thoughts, emotions, & behaviors. Together, we build a steady & trusting therapeutic relationship—one grounded in curiosity, compassion, & self-reflection.
I believe active parental involvement is crucial. When working with children I require at least 1 hour-long parent session per month. No one knows your child better than you, & I believe that when therapist & parent(s) work together, meaningful change can truly take place.

Some days you hold it all together. Other days, the weight is harder to hide, restless nights, a tightness in your chest, a feeling of being untethered. You may also see it in your teen: the spark dimming, smiles fading, or unexplained aches and tension. What you want is simple, but feels far away, ease, connection, a sense of safety in your own skin. Therapy can be a place to gently untangle what’s been carried too long, helping you or your child feel lighter, more grounded, and more connected to yourself and others.

Sometimes we feel off. We know ourselves well enough to know “something needs to change,” but progress feels unclear or scary and we get stuck. There can be no change without awareness. I view therapy as a tool for just that: increased understanding of our inner and outer worlds. I use an integrative approach to explore and confront the realities that inform you from your past and that may be holding you back today. We’ll start with clarity about what those are. With compassion and great care for safety we’ll continue to uncover your personal strengths and increase your confidence to relate to yourself and others authentically.
