I work with young adults, parents, and families navigating anxiety, relationship struggles, and gender-related experiences — including dysphoria, questioning, or grief tied to past decisions. Some clients want space to better understand themselves; others are families hoping to reconnect after conflict or uncertainty. I use DBT skills to strengthen emotional resilience, an attachment-based approach with families, and a compassionate, whole-person lens that considers relationships, mental health, personality, and life experience — not just identity labels.
I specialize in anxiety, high sensitivity, relationships, and gender-related experiences such as uncertainty about identity and distress about the body. My approach offers a nonjudgmental space to learn practical DBT skills for overwhelming emotions and understand the emotional, relational, and developmental context of what you're experiencing.
Being human is humbling and beautiful. Life doesn’t come with a roadmap; but in my experience counseling can give us a way forward with greater understanding, resilience, and hope. Whether you're a young adult trying to make sense of yourself or a parent worried about your child, you don't have to carry it alone. Let me know if you'd like to chat!
