Do you feel like you're constantly holding everything together for everyone else while quietly struggling yourself? Maybe anxiety has taken over, you've experienced trauma, are navigating ADHD, healing from an unhealthy relationship or divorce or simply feel exhausted from trying to keep up. I work with teens and adults who are ready to understand themselves on a deeper level and create meaningful change. Therapy with me is warm, collaborative, and practical. Together we'll identify what's keeping you stuck, build effective coping skills, and help you feel more confident, connected, and like yourself again.
My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to your needs. Using EMDR, CBT, and DBT, I'll help you process trauma, manage anxiety, navigate ADHD, strengthen emotional regulation, and break unhelpful patterns. Together, we'll build insight, practical skills, and lasting change.
Reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you've been carrying everything on your own. You don't have to have all the answers before you begin. Whether you're looking to heal from the past, strengthen your relationships, or simply feel more like yourself again, I'd be honored to support you on that journey.
