Are you tired of worrying about everything in your life? It feels obsessive at times, and then other moments the guilt of not doing enough creep in. Over time your stress has become difficult to manage and you’ve started to notice it impact other areas of your life, like your sleep, eating patterns, or relationships. Maybe you’re at the point of feeling stuck in this anxiety loop and exhausted by the pursuit of perfection. You’re ready for a break from the stress cycle. You deserve to feel more in control of your life. If it feels too heavy, it’s because it is heavy right now. You shouldn’t have to live every day seeking an escape.
I can help you find a deep healing, serenity, and the skills you need to live a meaningful life. Using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Somatic Therapy, and other specialized trainings specific for anxiety and addiction–we’ll get to the root of your anxiety, struggles with self-esteem, and relationship issues.
You can expect me to show up as my authentic self–kind, honest, and with a good sense of humor–so you can show up as yours. You deserve a safe space where you can feel vulnerable and begin to grow beyond the anxiety. If you’re ready to feel more confident, and less weighed down with worry, I can help. Schedule a 15-minute call with me to see if it's a fit.

I work with folks who may be struggling with anxiety or addiction, overlapping issues with self-esteem or self-compassion. During our initial sessions, we will discuss in depth these issues and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you find purpose again. Most of my clients notice progress being made within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use techniques from CBT, ACT, and DBT when working with client's struggling with addiction issues and wanting to see behavioral changes within themselves. I am trained in ERP and I-CBT to address concerns for OCD and severe anxieties. I think it's important to grow in a variety of ways emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually to become the best version of yourself in therapy.
