Life doesn't always fall apart- but it can start to feel off. You might be overthinking everything, stuck in the same relationship patterns or feeling like you've lost your sense of direction. Maybe you're the one others rely on, but you're not sure how to take care of yourself in the same way. I work with teens through older adults who are navigating difficulties like people-pleasing, overanalyzing, self-esteem challenges and life transitions. Whether you're dealing with relationship stress, major changes or just a sense that something isn't working anymore, therapy can help you sort through it and move forward with more clarity.
I use a person-centered, integrative approach, drawing from CBT and SFBT. Everything is tailored to you-your pace, your goals, your life. Therapy with me is about breaking patterns, learning to set and hold boundaries, making confident decisions, creating changes that feel meaningful and sustainable and feeling like yourself again.
My style is direct, validating and grounded in real conversation. I'll support you-but I'll also help you notice patterns, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and make practical changes that actually stick. Additionally, when it fits, I like to use a little humor, because growth doesn't have to feel heavy all of the time.
