Struggling with relationships, self-worth, or choosing partners who trigger old wounds? I help Gen-Z and Millennial adults develop self-confidence and feel more secure in the relationships they choose. Maybe you’re confident in some areas of life, yet still get pulled into dynamics that make you feel “too much,” “not enough,” or easy to replace. You compare yourself to your friends, peers, or strangers on the internet - wondering how they seem so confident or “put together.” When anxiety, overthinking, or self-doubt take over, it can shape how you see yourself and what you believe you deserve.
I help clients build self-worth, set healthy boundaries, and stop choosing relationships from fear or old attachment wounds. We’ll explore how past experiences shape current patterns and develop practical tools to manage anxiety, navigate conflict, and choose connections that feel secure and aligned with your values.
You deserve a space where you can breathe, feel seen, and start believing you’re enough — without performing or shrinking yourself to fit someone else’s comfort. If you’re ready to stop second-guessing yourself and start building relationships rooted in confidence, reach out. I currently provide virtual therapy to clients located in New York or Vermont.

I have extensive experience supporting clients struggling with low self-esteem, body image, and disordered eating. I operate from the understanding that our sense of self doesn't form in isolation — it's influenced by the cultural messages, gender roles, and societal expectations we grow up in. My work helps clients untangle which beliefs truly belong to them and which ones no longer serve them.
