I work with adults who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, or major life changes. Many have spent years caring for others while neglecting their own needs, leaving them emotionally exhausted or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Together, we'll identify what's holding you back, process difficult experiences, build practical coping skills, and help you move forward with greater confidence, resilience, and hope.
I use evidence-based approaches, including EMDR and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to help clients heal from trauma, reduce anxiety, strengthen relationships, and navigate life's challenges. Every treatment plan is tailored to your goals, creating a practical path toward lasting change.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you've been carrying everything on your own. You don't have to have all the answers before you begin. If you're ready for support, healing, and meaningful change, I'd be glad to walk alongside you as you take that next step.
