My ideal client is the person whose life has not turned out the way he or she thought it would. He or she is unhappy, unsatisfied, engaged in unhealthy patterns and unsuccessful relationships, and feels helpless, hopeless, confused, and overwhelmed. I believe everyone has the power to make positive changes in their lives. My job is to hear them and guide them toward that change. Clients often tell me they finally feel "seen" and "understood" in our sessions. My goal isnt to "fix" them-its to help them reconnect with the strengths they already have, so they can feel more peaceful, confident, and in control of their lives.
I enjoy treating people who suffer from anxiety, depression or low self-esteem. For anxiety: Clients learn how to quiet racing thoughts, manage worry, and feel more present. For depression: Clients learn to reconnect with meaning, energy and self-compassion, even on difficult days. For low self-esteem: Clients learn to heal the inner critic.
If you are struggling with constant worry, or feel "worthless", I would love to help! My approach is gentle but practical. I combine evidence based tools like CBT and mindfulness with a warm collaborative style. My passion is to help people see their inner strengths and live more authentically.

Anxiety: You replay conversations. You worry about making the "wrong" choice. You feel tense even when nothing's "wrong." That's not you being dramatic-that's anxiety trying to protect you, but going into overdrive. In therapy, we learn how to calm that alarm system so your mind and body can rest again. We will create a plan for addressing your anxious thoughts and find solutions to calm them.
