My ideal clients are adults feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burned out while managing work, parenting, caregiving, or military life. They come to therapy for stress, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, or life transitions. I provide a supportive space to build coping skills, improve balance, and feel more emotionally grounded.
I specialize in anxiety, stress, burnout, trauma, ADHD, parenting stress, and life transitions, with a focus on military families and caregivers. I use CBT, person-centered, solution-focused, and mindfulness approaches to help clients build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and create lasting, practical change.
You don’t have to keep carrying everything on your own. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, or simply stuck, therapy can provide a space to breathe, process, and heal. When you’re ready, I’d be honored to support you as you work toward greater balance, peace, and emotional wellness.
