I prefer to use a holistic approach and look to partner with you in the way in which you'd like treatment to proceed. I have been successful working with clients experiencing issues surrounding identity, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ exploration and affirmation, among many others. You can expect to sit with someone who cares about you and what you are currently going through. With a warm and humorous approach we can reach together a space in which you feel comfortable exploring your needs. Tambien estoy lista para explorar lo que sientes y necesitas en español.

Finding peace shouldn’t be this hard. But you’re here and that tells me something. Maybe you’ve been juggling stress, emotional overwhelm, anxiety that won’t quit, or past pain that still shows up in your relationships, sleep, or sense of safety. Maybe you feel like you’re doing “everything right” and still not feeling right. That exhaustion, that heaviness, that restless thinking… those aren’t “just in your head.” They’re signals your nervous system hasn’t gotten the memo that you deserve calm, clarity, and connection.

My ideal clients are adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally stuck and unsure how to move forward. Many are coping with stress, trauma, relationship challenges, or significant life transitions while trying to manage daily responsibilities. They may feel disconnected from themselves, emotionally drained, or caught in unhelpful patterns, and are seeking greater clarity, emotional balance, and a deeper understanding of their inner experience.

Let's address your anxiety and high stress, or improve low energy and motivation while you achieve your goals. I support and hold space for my clients as they find balance between mental wellness and their busy lives. Life's unexpected transitions can leave you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and disconnected from yourself. Whether you're facing a change you didn't choose or sensing that something needs to shift, you might feel burdened by fears about the future, isolated in your experience, or simply unlike yourself. If you're ready to feel less alone in this and more emotionally grounded, I'd be honored to support you.

Maybe you feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, like masking, over-apologizing, shutting down in conflict, people-pleasing, or mistrusting closeness. Perhaps you’ve spent years suppressing your feelings - avoiding your anger, sadness, or pain. You want to feel more like yourself in your relationships, less guarded, more alive. You want to stop bracing for impact and start trusting your own pace. Folks I work with are often people who have learned to keep themselves small or fragmented to survive. Deep down, they long for authentic connection, emotional safety, and space to grow into the full complexity of who they are.

Many of the amazing individuals and couples I work with come to therapy feeling stuck despite having high self-awareness. Maybe you know what that's like. You have a good understanding of yourself and your patterns, but you feel like you're at a loss for how to heal past wounds and make lasting changes. You might be experiencing anxiety, depression, or shame about not being able to get out of your own way. It's tough, especially for folks who are survivors of trauma or have had difficult early life experiences. The good news though is that healing is possible – through therapy that goes deeper.

You might be interested in psychotherapy, because you’re facing recent problems that affect your work or personal life. The following are just several kinds of problems that are common among clients in my practice. Experiencing excessive sadness. Getting frustrated too quickly and intensely. Enduring repetitive thoughts that lead to feeling stuck. Procrastinating on significant decisions. Having trouble with sleep. Feeling overly sensitive to rejection or criticism in relationships. Drinking too much or smoking too much. Problems such as these can reverberate throughout your life and, moreover, might be traced back into your past.
