Carrying the weight of past experiences, daily stress, and the feeling of being misunderstood can be exhausting. It’s hard to find time to care for yourself, especially when you’re not even sure where to begin. Therapy offers space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of what feels overwhelming. You don’t need a clear plan or a specific goal. Just showing up with honesty and curiosity is enough. Together we can sort through what’s been building and help you feel more steady, present, and connected to yourself.

Most struggles don’t fit neatly into one category, because people are complex and so are their lives. I offer a thoughtful, integrative approach that supports the whole person, whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship patterns, identity questions, or life transitions. Therapy isn’t about fitting you into a box, it’s about understanding all the layers.

If this sounds like you, I’d really like to meet you. Therapy is a chance to sort through what’s been building up and start feeling more like yourself. We can take it one step at a time, and I’ll be right there with you. Reach out when it feels right.
