Are you feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from the people and things you care about? It can be difficult to know where to begin when you're facing changes or persistent challenges. My role is to meet you exactly where you are, whether you are facing grief and loss, relationship conflict, professional stress, or a major life transition. These hardships often bring about cycles of anxiety and depression. Life transitions can be overwhelming. I’m an LCSW, here to walk alongside you as you break through limiting beliefs and move toward a more expansive self. I also have a deep passion for supporting the creative community—understandin
My approach is client-centered, drawing upon proven techniques like CBT, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy to address anxiety, creative blocks, perfectionism, grief and loss, and work/life balance. Beyond meeting immediate goals, my aim is to help you cultivate a deeper self-awareness.
