I specialize in working with college-aged adults and professionals who are navigating major life transitions. Beginning therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to walk alongside you as you manage challenges such as career burnout, adjusting from college to full-time work, or balancing the demands of job and family life.
It takes courage to recognize when life feels overwhelming and to seek support. My approach is strengths-based, grounded in the belief that you already possess the inner resources to set meaningful goals and create lasting change.
When you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be glad to connect.
My work draws on Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to help clarify what matters most to you and what drives your personal growth. I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thought patterns and build effective coping and self-care strategies.
When you’re ready to get started, feel free to reach out. My phone number and email address are listed in my profile, or connect with me through my website.
