Hey! If you’re here, chances are you’re overwhelmed, tired of all the chaos, and just want things to be better-sound about right? Well, take a breath. I got you. Reaching out for therapy is one of the hardest things to do, especially when it feels like you’re alone. You are not alone, in fact you made it all the way to this profile! Look at you, standing on business! I will walk alongside you while you figure things out. Together, we’ll help you feel more grounded, reconnect with yourself, and move through the hard stuff at your own pace.
Therapy doesn’t have to be intimidating. While growth takes effort, that doesn’t mean we can’t experience some real, even fun, moments along the way. I use person-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused strategies, components of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and somatic techniques.
If you feel like we may vibe, I’d love to connect with you. Feel free to reach out for a free 15 minute consultation. I look forward to hearing from you!
