Does it feel like anxiety is running your life? Are worries about health, money, relationships, or work leaving you feeling stuck or overwhelmed? Life’s challenges can feel isolating, but you don’t have to face them alone. Therapy can help you find calm, clarity, and purpose. Together, we’ll work to heal emotional pain, regain control, and create a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling. I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, grief and loss, self-esteem challenges, major life transitions, and unresolved childhood trauma.
Whether you’re facing day-to-day stress or deeper emotional wounds, I offer tools and strategies to help you heal and thrive. Together, we’ll work on building coping skills, reframing unhelpful thoughts, and finding solutions that feel right for you. Reaching out for help is a courageous step, and I’m here to support you in this journey.
My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered to create meaningful change. Therapy is about progress, not perfection—and we’re all works in progress. If you’re ready to explore how I can help, I’d love to hear from you. Feel free to email me. Adults (18+) are welcome!"

I often use Integrative therapy which involves selecting the techniques from different types of therapy that are best suited to a client's particular problem. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress towards your goals.
