I use core principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ( ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered and Humanistic approaches.
Sometimes life feels heavier than it should. You may find yourself overwhelmed by anxiety, struggling in relationships, questioning your self-worth, or feeling stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break. With over 8 years of experience, I provide a warm, supportive space where you can be yourself without judgment. I believe healing happens when you feel truly heard and understood. I utilize evidence-based techniques tailored to meet your specific needs. Together, we’ll work through life’s challenges, build practical coping skills, and help you feel more confident, connected, and at peace with yourself and your life.

My work is relational and trauma-informed, using ACT, Emotion-Focused, and Narrative approaches to support emotional regulation, values-based decisions, and steady coping during uncertainty.
My ideal client is someone who appears to be functioning on the outside but feels emotionally stretched thin on the inside. They may be navigating anxiety, grief, illness, caregiving roles, or major life transitions that have disrupted their sense of identity or direction. They want a steady, grounded space to process what they’re carrying, regulate their nervous system, and make values-based decisions during uncertainty. Their goal is to move through this season with more clarity, steadiness, and self-trust — not just get through it.

I have experience with EMDR, CBT, DBT, and ACT.
Life can throw us challenges that leave us feeling uncertain or overwhelmed — but with the right support, change is possible. Whether you’re struggling with past trauma, overwhelming emotions, or patterns you want to break, there is a way forward. You don’t have to navigate these challenges alone. I’m here to help you feel understood, supported, and empowered to take meaningful steps toward healing and growth. Reclaiming your sense of self and building the life you want is within reach, and I’d be honored to support you on that journey.
