Transform your high-pressure life into lasting peace with expert therapy designed to heal your relationships, silence burnout, and help you thrive. Therapy is a collaborative effort to set goals and achieve them, and that happens with the right connection between a client and a therapist. My approach to therapy is a mixture of strength-based therapy, empowerment, CBT, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness. I customize each session, understanding that each person's story is different. "You can't go back to change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending". - C.S. Lewis
I provide specialized online therapy for ambitious women seeking to overcome anxiety, perfectionism, and burnout, along with supporting clients as they navigate the complexities of toxic relationships, divorce, and separations. Additionally, I work with couples to foster reconnection through evidence-based communication strategies and relational tools.
I believe that helping you discover your own strengths and supports and learning how to use them will let you live your best life. I know life is hard and I may not have all the answers, but I will be there with you on your journey to find them.

You're the one everyone leans on. The one who 'handles it all.' But behind the scenes, you're navigating a storm. Whether you're reeling from a recent heartbreak, struggling to set boundaries with an ex, in a life transition, or stuck in a loop of overthinking, you don't have to face this transition alone.

I tailor the type of approach I use to each client. I realize that what might work well with one doesn't mean it will work for another. I will get to know you and with your input, develop a plan that will work for you.
