Life gets heavy when you're carrying a lot. Work, relationships, caregiving, parenthood — it adds up, and somewhere in the middle of all of it, you stop making the list. I work with adults navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, and big identity shifts. A lot of my clients are women and moms who are holding the mental load and running on empty. I also support people who are rethinking their relationship with alcohol or substances. As a mom of two, I understand how full and demanding this stage of life can feel, and how hard it can be to carve out time for yourself.
I offer virtual therapy for adults dealing with anxiety, overwhelm, life transitions, and substance or alcohol use. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based. We work together to find new perspectives, untangle what's keeping you stuck, and build something that actually fits your real life.
Therapy with me feels more like a good conversation than a formal appointment. We move at your pace, with room for honesty, reflection, and even some humor when it fits. You don't need a perfect reason to reach out. If something feels off, that's enough to start.
