You might be navigating anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, women's issues, or burnout— doing your best to cope but still feeling overwhelmed. Maybe you identify as neurodivergent and want to understand yourself better. You may have unhelpful thoughts, emotional reactions, or behaviors that feel hard to change. Or perhaps you find yourself stuck in patterns of behaviors or emotions that keep repeating no matter how many times you try to change. My work focuses on helping you explore these patterns, develop insight into how they affect your daily life, and learn tools to create meaningful change.
My work draws from CBT, psychodynamic, and other evidence-based methods tailored to you. We’ll explore both the “why” and “how” of your experience while building skills to move forward. I offer compassion and honest reflection while gently challenging you to think and act in new ways. I specialize in anxiety, depression, women's issues, and neurodivergence.
Therapy is a space to reflect, gain insight, and grow by taking meaningful action toward change. If you’re seeking a thoughtful, collaborative process where you’re supported while doing the work, let’s connect. I offer a free consultation to see whether working together feels like a good fit.
