You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, disconnected in relationships, or stuck in patterns that no longer feel helpful. I work with older teens, young adults, adults, and couples navigating things like: anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, attachment wounds, emotional regulation difficulties, stress, burnout, substance use concerns, communication issues, and major life transitions. My goal is to create a supportive, genuine space where clients feel understood and able to make meaningful changes that fit their lives.
I believe therapy works best when people feel comfortable being themselves. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and tailored to each client’s needs. I often use CBT, DBT, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients build skills around emotional regulation, communication, stress management, and healthier relationships.
I also have a strong interest in movement-based and nature-informed therapy and eco-therapy concepts. I enjoy supporting individuals and couples navigating grief, emotional overwhelm, relationship stress, identity changes, and difficult life transitions. Reach out for a free consultation to see if we may be a good fit.
