I also work with anxiety, OCD, trauma, & body image concerns.
Therapy with me is an active, dynamic process—not just talking in circles. We’ll explore what’s holding you back, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and practice setting boundaries (yes, even with your mother). Some days, it’s skill-building. Other days, it’s deep processing. Every session is tailored to you and what you need in the moment.
