Hi there! Feeling overwhelmed or unsure of your next step? You're not alone. I help those navigating life transitions, career changes, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and relationship challenges to build a clear path forward with confidence. Taking this first step is courageous, and I'm honored you're here! Together, we'll create a safe, supportive space to explore new perspectives and develop practical strategies to help you reach your goals. My approach is integrative and always tailored to you, ensuring you feel seen and understood on your unique journey. Let's build your path forward, together.
As a Somatic Experiencing practitioner in training and an EMDR & DBT trained therapist, my approach integrates these powerful, evidence-based methods. We'll address past difficult experiences, process present sensations, and work together to build new, effective coping skills to move forward. We'll blend these to fit you, with virtual or in-person sessions.
With almost 10 years of experience supporting children, teens, adults, and families, my passion is helping others find their path to growth. If you feel we could be a good fit, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute clarity call. I accept insurance through Headway. You can submit a request directly through my profile here to get started on your journey.
