My ideal clients are adults who appear to have life under control on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or emotionally exhausted beneath the surface. Many are struggling with stress, relationship challenges, trauma, addiction, or significant life transitions. Drawing on four decades of clinical experience, I help clients gain insight, develop practical coping strategies, and create lasting change so they can move forward with greater confidence, resilience, stability, and hope.
I help adults with anxiety, stress, burnout, and relationship strain who feel overwhelmed or stuck. Using CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing, I provide practical tools to manage emotions, reduce stress, and create healthier patterns. My style is direct, supportive, and focused on lasting change.
If you’ve been carrying stress or anxiety for a while, it can start to feel exhausting and isolating. You don’t have to sort it out alone. Change is possible, even if it doesn’t feel that way right now. If you’re ready for things to feel more manageable, I’m here to help you take that next step.
