If you have beautifully curated dreams and no idea where to start...I help emerging adults build confidence, untangle old patterns, and create lives that feel truly their own.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. Drawing from CBT, DBT, and other evidence-based approaches, we’ll explore the experiences, beliefs, and patterns that have shaped you, build practical skills to navigate life as it is while working toward the life you want, and discover what helps you grow. Therapy isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about curiosity, experimentation, self-compassion, and taking baby steps toward growth.
Together, we’ll strengthen self-trust and create a future that reflects your values, not just the expectations placed on you. If your Pinterest boards have a five-year plan, your Notes app has a novel, or you’ve spent hours wondering why you are the way you are, you might be exactly the kind of person I love working with.
I specialize in working with emerging adults navigating identity, relationships, anxiety, life transitions, family dynamics, and substance use. I also work with adolescents and couples, including couples navigating the impact of addiction.
