I work with adults (18+) who are navigating life's challenges, who are seeking a deeper understanding of themselves, and to gain coping skills. Much of my work focuses on supporting adult children of emotionally immature parents, a process that often includes grief, healing, and making sense of long-standing relational patterns. In our work together, I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and empathetic space for you to explore your journey of self-discovery, healing, and personal development. I’ll offer compassionate feedback and guidance as we address your unique needs and mental health goals.
I have experience working with adults facing a wide range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, psychosis, trauma/PTSD, and bipolar disorder. I’m trained in several evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), & Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR).
My approach is pretty simple: no fluff, no jargon, just real talk. I’m all about being practical, honest, and genuinely human (no robot wisdom here). Think of me as the supportive sidekick who brings compassion, zero judgment, and maybe a well-timed metaphor or two. Together, we’ll work on building resilience, boosting self-worth, and finding your balance.
