Sometimes life feels overwhelming. You may find yourself trying to take care of everything and everyone else, while your own needs get pushed aside. Maybe you’re dealing with past trauma, grief, a life transition, or anxiety that makes it hard to move forward. At some point, it can feel like too much—and you’re not sure how to sort through it all. Therapy can be a space where you don’t have to hold everything together. A place to slow down, explore your emotions, and start making sense of what you’ve been through.
I work with individuals who want to better understand themselves, process difficult experiences, and find ways to move forward that feel realistic and manageable. As a former first responder, I also understand the impact of high-stress environments and how that can carry over into everyday life.
My approach is collaborative, supportive, and honest. Together, we’ll look at patterns, thoughts, and behaviors that may be keeping you stuck. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and Brainspotting to help you build coping skills, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with your inner strength.
