You're juggling a lot—trying to keep it together while quietly feeling overwhelmed. Maybe you’re the one everyone turns to, but you’re craving a space where you can let go. You may be managing anxiety, masking neurodivergence, unpacking old trauma, or exploring who you are in relationships or identity. You might not even know exactly what you need yet—you just know you want to feel more connected, grounded, and seen. I reserve a limited number of insurance-based spots, but most clients choose to work with me directly so we can focus on your goals—not your diagnosis or session limits. To schedule an intake, please email me directly
I specialize in working with emotionally intense, self-aware individuals—many navigating stress, neurodivergence, identity, or complex relationships (some traditional, some not). I blend ACT, CBT, and expressive arts to create a flexible, affirming space where you can explore growth at your own pace.
You don’t have to keep carrying it all alone. You deserve a space where you can be real, feel seen, and take a breath. If you're ready for meaningful support, please email me or schedule a session through my website—I’d be honored to work with you.
