Feeling stuck in a rut? Anxious about... well, a lot of things? Struggling to connect with others or even connect with yourself? It's tough. Though you don’t have to face alone. Life is overwhelming, and it’s okay to need and ask for support. And, you don’t have to wait to talk to someone who gets it. As your therapist, I can offer a space to not only explore and make sense of what you're going through but also to develop practical tools that help you respond in ways that feel more grounded, empowered, and true to you.
The specific approach we take will be guided by your needs, goals, & pace. I believe you are the expert of your own life, and that’s why I take a collaborative approach to therapy. My clinical approach combines evidence-based approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), & Psychodynamic Therapy.
It's normal to feel nervous, sacred, and even hopeful about therapy. If you’re feeling stuck, anxious, overwhelmed, or ready for something gradual to shift, I’m here for you.
When you're ready, I’d be honored to support you in taking that next step.
