I work with teenagers and adults who are navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the emotional impact of past experiences. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, burnt out, or disconnected from themselves, even when things “look fine” on the outside. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, understood, and empowered. Together, we’ll explore patterns that may be keeping you stuck, build healthier coping strategies, and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.
I use evidence-based practices including trauma-informed care such as EMDR, CBT, and mindfulness-based approaches. I tailor therapy to each individual, recognizing that there is no one-size-fits-all to healing. Whether you’re working through anxiety, low self-esteem, or unresolved experiences from the past, my goal is to help you feel grounded.
I advocate for individuals of all backgrounds, including minorities, understanding the difficulty of finding a therapist who relates to unique struggles. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is essential, and I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard, understood, and comfortable in their sessions.
