My ideal clients are individuals navigating emotional, behavioral, or relational challenges who want a space where they feel genuinely seen and accepted. Many come to me after struggling with emotional regulation, anxiety, self-esteem, or relationship difficulties, looking for a therapist who meets them where they are rather than pushing them faster than feels safe. Using a strengths-based, relational approach, I help clients recognize their existing strengths while building new tools for emotional regulation, healthier relationships, and coping. Together, we move toward growth at a pace that feels sustainable.

You are not broken, and you do not need to be fixed. I specialize in working with high-capacity individuals - the ones who carry everyone else while quietly running on empty. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness-based practices, and a relational, justice-oriented framework, I help clients unhook from cycles of over-responsibility, perfectionism, and chronic stress so they can move toward rest, authenticity, and a life aligned with what truly matters. With over 15 years of experience, warmth, and grounded honesty, I create a space where you can finally stop being the strong one for a while.

Therapy isn't always about feeling better right away - it's about getting better at feeling. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, perfectionism, disordered eating, emotion dysregulation, and life transitions, including highly sensitive people, burnt-out overachievers, and young adults figuring out who they are. Intensively trained in DBT and informed by ACT, somatic awareness, and mindfulness, I help clients build practical skills to live in alignment with their values and weather the harder parts of life with more ease.
