Life can feel overwhelming, especially when anxiety, stress, or uncertainty about your direction starts to take over. I work with high school students, college students, and adults who are ready to better understand themselves and make positive change. With 25 years of experience, my approach is calm, supportive, and down-to-earth. Together, we’ll build healthy coping skills, reduce overthinking, and strengthen your confidence so you can find balance, clarity, and a stronger sense of purpose in where you’re headed.
I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, anger & stress management for clients with a passion for supporting teens and young adults. I help navigate the pressures of high school, college, and life transitions by teaching coping skills, defining root causes, and providing guidance and support to build resilience and well-being.
I’m a big believer in keeping things real and meeting you with compassion, wherever you are in life. Therapy with me is a no-judgment zone, and my goal is to help you find practical tools that actually fit your life. If you’re curious about therapy or just wondering if it might be the right next step, I’m here. Reach out — I’d love to hear your story

I like to use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy however, I know we are all unique and am able to taylor these methods based on your needs. Our first session may be information gathering so that I am able to understand you and your situation. From there we will look at how your thoughts affect your emotions. I love to teach coping skills that enhance long lasting growth!
