Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally stuck? I’m here to help. Using a strengths-based approach, I support clients in managing everyday emotions, building resilience, and finding balance—even during times of high stress. Together, we’ll focus on developing healthy coping strategies, processing life’s challenges, and identifying your unique strengths. I create a safe, supportive space where you can express yourself—verbally or creatively—and begin the journey toward healing and personal growth. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful change and a more balanced, fulfilling life.
I believe that healing begins with self-awareness. By understanding your thoughts, emotions, and patterns, you can reduce stress, improve your quality of life, and build lasting well-being. Whether you're facing challenges with behavior, trauma, self-confidence, academics, or relationships, you deserve support.
I offer a range of supportive services designed to meet your unique needs. I also provide supervision for individuals pursuing their ATR or LPC. If you're looking for meaningful support—for yourself, your family, or your professional journey—I invite you to reach out. Let’s take the next step together.
