Whether you're navigating relationships, identity shifts, or just trying to feel like yourself again—I’m here to walk with you. My approach is rooted in attachment theory, dialectical behavioral therapy, and the belief that you decide what your healing looks like.

I support individuals and couples to rebuild self-worth, trust, and connection.
Finding your way back to our partner or yourself can be a difficult journey, one that asks you to connect with feelings not yet resolved, wounds not yet healed, and needs not yet voiced. When your needs for comfort, validation, protection, and connection are not met in your relationships, you can be vulnerable to feeling unworthy, unsafe, and unseen. I specialize in attachment and the protective strategies we all have for managing stress, conflict, and disconnection. You may move towards others, hoping that if we fight loud, long, or hard enough, our pain and anger will eventually be acknowledged.

I specialize in the full arc of transformation - helping you process unresolved pain, change relational patterns, undo aloneness, and remove the blocks and barriers that prevent you from fully inhabiting your life. I work with clients to move beyond performance, perfectionism, anxiety, people-pleasing, self-criticism, and strained relational cycles by transforming the deeper emotional and attachment patterns that live underneath. Together, we work toward lasting change that is not only understood intellectually but deeply felt and lived.

Through evidence-based therapies and a client-centered approach, I help women build resilience, enhance self-esteem, and cultivate healthier relationships with themselves and others.
If you’re a woman who feels exhausted by your past, overwhelmed by change, or stuck in patterns of stress and self-doubt, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself. We will create a space that feels safe, supportive and deeply collaborative. Rather than focusing on what’s “wrong,” we’ll build on your existing strengths and help you shift from seeking validation outside of yourself to feeling more secure and confident from within. My goal is to support you in reconnecting with your own needs, values, and desires, so you can create a life that feels more fulfilling, balanced, and truly your own.

To be seen and known by others is an incredible feeling of connection but it means being authentic and vulnerable. Sadly, we live in a time with the illusion of connection while being more disconnected than ever. You may feel disconnected from others and even from yourself. Though you are a gift to this world, it is often blocked and unexpressed. This may leave you feeling alone and invisible. The truth is, you may be starving for deeper connection and that starvation looks like depression, anxiety, stress, and more. When you are living disconnected, you are abandoning yourself.

Self Esteem Therapists
When should a person seek therapy for low self-esteem?
When self-esteem problems begin to disrupt the healthy daily functioning of an individual, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not engaging with friends for fear of being judged, not completing work assignments because they don’t think they’re capable, or not finding romantic love because they don’t feel they’re worthy of it, a therapist may be able to help.
What are the signs of low self-esteem?
Low self-esteem is a common issue that can affect a person's mental and emotional well-being. Some common signs of low self-esteem include negative self-talk, perfectionism, social anxiety, difficulty making decisions, an inability to set boundaries, people-pleasing, and others. A lack of belief in oneself or one’s abilities and a feeling of not being worthy or deserving underlie most of these characteristics.
What causes low self-esteem?
Feelings of low self-worth can begin in childhood or adulthood. Being raised by a highly critical parent or growing up feeling constant disapproval can stay with a person well into adulthood. Specific issues in adulthood may also be a cause of low self-esteem. An unhappy relationship, a dysfunctional work or school experience can impact a person’s feelings of self-worth.
How can therapy improve self-esteem?
Therapists can help identify negative thought patterns that keep the client stuck in a loop of destructive self-talk and develop coping skills to change the voice in their head. A therapist can help with goal-setting, so that clients are better able to stay on task and build confidence from successfully completing work they’re proud of. Coaching a client on how to better communicate can improve relationships. These skills can result in someone with low self-esteem feeling empowered and living with less fear.
