I work with young teens and young adults who are feeling stressed, anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally stuck. Many of the people I support are navigating school pressure, work stress, family expectations, identity exploration, or major life transitions. Even when things appear “okay” on the outside, you may feel unsure how to manage your emotions or feel disconnected from yourself and others. I enjoy working with clients who are open to self-exploration and growth, even when the process feels challenging at times.

Life can be hard and messy, especially modern life. Therapy is an opportunity to pause, seek clarity on where we're stuck or what we're going through, and find a way forward. As a psychologist with 14 years of experience providing individual therapy, I’m particularly interested in how our past shapes our present-day patterns of thinking, feeling, and reacting and in experimenting with new, more helpful ways of relating to our self and our world. I feel I'm especially attuned to working with anxiety, shame, complex trauma, chronic worrying or "overthinking", grief, and challenges related to identity and relationships.

Seeking support can be really tough. Especially if we have a worry we'll not be heard, or appreciated for who we are.

Therapy can be casual or intense (often, it's both!). It’s okay if you’re not yet sure about exactly what you need.
