Life can feel heavy, but you don't have to carry it alone. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or a bit disconnected from yourself lately, I'm glad you're here. I support teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, LGBTQIA+ concerns, infertility, and the many layers of parenting. Our work together is never one‑size‑fits‑all; it’s centered on you and what you need right now. We’ll move at your pace in a space that’s warm, affirming, and judgment‑free—with flexible Sunday sessions to better fit your life.

My approach is collaborative and tailored to you. By blending evidence‑based techniques like CBT and mindfulness with a deep respect for your unique story, we work toward change that lasts. Sessions are holistic, nonjudgmental, and focused on your specific goals.

I know the first step is often the hardest. To make it easier, I offer a free 15‑minute consultation. It’s a low‑pressure chance for us to talk, answer your questions, and see if we’re a good fit. You deserve to feel comfortable, safe, and heard.
