Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying more than you know how to manage. Maybe your mind won’t slow down, you’re constantly second-guessing yourself, relationships feel harder than they should, or you simply don’t feel like yourself anymore. You may be navigating pregnancy or postpartum, parenting challenges, trauma, grief, or a major life transition. Whatever brings you here, therapy can be a place to slow things down, understand what’s happening, develop practical tools, and begin moving toward meaningful change.
I bring specialized training in perinatal and reproductive mental health, OCD, trauma, anxiety, and depression. My approach is warm, practical, and individualized. Together, we’ll understand patterns, build useful skills, and find approaches that fit your needs and goals.
You don’t need the right words or have to know where to begin. Come as you are. I want therapy to be a place where you can be honest, ask hard questions, laugh when you need to, and feel supported without judgment. I’ll walk alongside you, gently challenge patterns keeping you stuck, and support you as you move forward.

I don't believe therapy is one-size-fits-all. I draw from evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, DBT, ERP, IFS, family systems, and trauma-focused care, tailoring treatment to you and your needs. Together, we'll understand patterns, build practical skills, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful changes that extend beyond the therapy room.
