When life starts to feel unmanageable, therapy can be a powerful space to rediscover your voice and reclaim your sense of self. Many of my clients come to me feeling drained from giving too much in their relationships—struggling to set boundaries or feeling responsible for others’ emotions. Together, we’ll explore these patterns with compassion and curiosity, helping you develop healthier connections built on trust, respect, and authenticity. As you strengthen your relationship with yourself, you’ll likely notice less anxiety, clearer communication, and a greater sense of peace in your relationships.
My approach is compassionate and emotionally focused. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic theory, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to meet your unique needs. As a former Couples Therapist, I also enjoy helping you build confidence in your communication skills and create more fulfilling relationships personally and professionally.
I work collaboratively with you to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences openly. Together, we’ll build on your strengths and resilience while developing practical tools to manage overwhelming emotions in healthy, empowering ways.
