If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or noticing patterns in your relationships you want to change, you’re not alone. You may find yourself overthinking, struggling with boundaries, or feeling disconnected. Together, we’ll gently slow things down, make sense of your experiences, and explore how your past shapes your present. I’ll meet you with warmth and without judgment as we build insight and strengthen coping skills. I am an Associate at Dove Counseling Services, LLC, specializing in Human Sexuality and trauma, with experience working with children, adolescents, and families navigating environmental and relational stressors.
I help teens (16+) and young adults navigate anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Together, we explore how past experiences and attachment patterns shape your present. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to build insight, coping skills, and healthier ways of relating.
Reaching out can feel hard, especially when you’ve been carrying things on your own. You don’t have to have it all figured out to start. If you’re ready for a space where you can be heard and supported, I invite you to take that first step when it feels right for you.
