I specialize in therapy for adolescents and adults with depression, anxiety, and stress. Maybe you feel drained by the intensity of your emotions and how deeply affected you are by others and the world around you. Maybe you feel stuck in your head, constantly overthinking, or pushing yourself to meet impossible standards. You care a lot, often about others more than yourself, and you’re tired of feeling like it’s never enough. You’re craving space to just be, without judgment or pressure to have it all figured out. You want tools to cope and space to be heard. You want someone who truly gets what it’s like to walk in your shoes.
In therapy, I create a safe, supportive space where your story is honored and your goals are central. We will work together to help you let go of your limiting beliefs and self-judgements. My primary goal is to empower you to make the changes you want in your life, and to help you feel more balanced, resilient, and connected.
Anxiety and depression can feel heavy, but beneath them lies deep emotional awareness and sensitivity. The ability to feel deeply and care profoundly are strengths that can foster resilience and growth. Together, we can transform worry into understanding and pain into growth. Reaching out for help can be hard, but its a powerful first step toward healing.

I integrate several evidence based therapy practices. Using ACT, I help people stop fighting their thoughts and feelings, accept them as they are, and focus on taking meaningful action based on their values. Mindfulness helps people learn to pay attention to the present moment with openness and without judgment, so they can better understand and manage their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
