You might look like you're holding it together on the outside—working, showing up for people, doing what you're supposed to—but inside things feel heavier than they should. When stress, anxiety, or relationship struggles keep resurfacing, it can leave you wondering why. I work with people who feel stuck and want something to change—whether that’s quieting anxiety, improving relationships, or understanding coping habits like substance use that no longer feel helpful. I help people understand what’s driving these experiences and how to move forward differently. Our work focuses on understanding what’s happening beneath the surface.
I help people slow down and make sense of what they’re experiencing. Together we explore the stories, beliefs, and experiences shaping your life, so you can better understand what’s driving your struggles. From there, we work toward greater clarity, confidence, and the ability to move forward in ways that feel more aligned with who you are.
I work with adults and transitional-age youth, in person and via telehealth. I offer a thoughtful, respectful space where all parts of your identity are welcomed. Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you're unsure where to start. If you're curious about whether this could be helpful for you, I invite you to reach out.
