I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and major life transitions. My most recent experience has been working with inpatients with severe mental illness and personality disorder. I also have a special focus on supporting women during the perinatal and postpartum period who may be experiencing mood changes, anxiety, or identity shifts. Whatever you may be experiencing, my goal is to provide a warm, compassionate space where you feel truly heard and supported as we identify patterns, build coping skills, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
This is the scene you will see during telehealth sessions. Lots of warm plants, and sometimes a cat in the background!
My approach to therapy is collaborative. I want to work with you to clarify your goals, help you to increase self-awareness into any maladaptive patterns, and develop practical strategies to better manage emotions, relationships, and stress. My aim is to help you build skills and insight that support steady, sustainable progress over time.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step. If you’re considering support, I welcome you to reach out. I offer a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where we can focus on your concerns and goals at a pace that feels right for you.
