Hey there, beautiful soul! Feeling like life's throwing too much your way lately? Take a deep breath, sis. You're not alone in this. I'm here to walk alongside you through those tough times, especially those unique to us women.

Are you feeling a bit down lately? Struggling to find joy in your daily life or feeling stuck professionally? Let's work together to develop a strategy that can bring about the positive changes you're seeking. As a supportive and empathetic counselor, I'm here to listen and provide the resources you need.

You want to appear successful and like you have it “all together,” but deep down you are struggling to manage your overthinking, perform when it counts, or feel like you’re “enough." Maybe you work really hard but still don’t get the results you are striving for. When this happens, you say mean things to yourself you would NEVER say to anyone else. Or, you worry about something you said or did, long after everyone else has forgotten about it. Plus, you aren’t always sure how you really feel or what to do with your feelings. You may question why things are so difficult when it seems like everyone else gets through life more easily.

We all have things we like in our lives and things we'd like to change for the better. This may mean improving relationships, a desire to improve mood, and/or addressing health issues or social issues impeding on one's ability to have the life they want. We are all doing the best we can, but often we want something more out of life, and we need some help to bring this to fruition. Therapy provides a safe and supportive space to identify what is going well and what might need change. It can also facilitate new effective ways of being.

I empower individuals to better manage their lives by helping them identify and restructure boundaries within relationships, work, hobbies/interests, and other obligations. We achieve this through assertiveness, self compassion, and esteem/confidence building. Together, we’ll discover what’s been getting in the way of you being the best version of yourself.
