Choosing to begin therapy is not a small step—it’s a brave one. Whether you are navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, or emotional overwhelm, the first step can be difficult. Starting therapy is a courageous and hopeful act. It means you’re choosing to turn toward yourself with curiosity, care, and the belief—no matter how quiet—that things can be different. That your life can feel lighter. That your story can unfold in new, more empowered ways. In a world that often tells us to keep moving, keep producing, and keep smiling—introspection is a radical act. It asks us to pause. To turn inward.
My specialty lies in supporting individuals facing the lasting impact of trauma, abandonment, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation. I work with those navigating deep-rooted patterns and a range of diagnoses, including Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), and Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD).
Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to apologize for your intensity or your sensitivity. It’s a space where you can fall apart without fear of rejection. Where your pain makes sense. Where we can untangle your emotional world together—with care, clarity, and compassion. Let's get started in the life you deserve.
