Do you struggle to manage symptoms of distress? You may experience physical discomfort, intrusive thoughts, or harmful behavior patterns. With a history of trauma, or “toxic stress ”, practicing coping skills can be difficult. Learning to calm yourself down may feel impossible. With practice, you can manage unwanted symptoms to create relief and improve life satisfaction. All people heal at their own pace, and all people can learn to reduce their own suffering.

While navigating your inner world and relationships, you may be feeling uncomfortable, overwhelmed, or alone. I work with individual clients experiencing interpersonal stress —whether it be rooted in anxiety, depression, or anger.

If you’re a loved one of someone living with borderline personality disorder or severe and persistent mental illness, you may be feeling helpless or struggling to find supportive direction.

To others, you feel like an imposter in your career or relationships. You feel like you are flailing through life and constantly questioning yourself.

I work with teens and adults struggling with stress , depression, burnout, anxiety, and moodiness. These issues often go hand in hand with self-doubt, self-sabotage, and imposter syndrome. I want to help you become more confident and develop a secure relationship with yourself and others.

For the ambitious, high-achievers in their early 20-30’s, life can be quite overwhelming. Juggling family responsibilities, romantic interests, and career aspirations while trying to establish a strong sense of independence is no small task. You may be left feeling like you're navigating the shift into early adulthood without a map, or charting new waters without land in sight. You may feel like you are doing a lot more, but not necessarily getting a lot more done and the expectation that reaching a certain milestone will bring comfort is constantly being met with disappointment, leaving you feeling unmotivated and unfulfilled.
