Many people in their 20s and 30s reach a point where life starts to feel more complicated than expected. Even when things look stable on the outside, it can feel exhausting to constantly second-guess yourself, overthink decisions, or feel unsure about the direction you’re heading. I work with young adults in their 20s and 30s navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I believe strongly in the power of human connection and in each person’s capacity for growth. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, understood, and supported as you work toward meaningful progress.
My approach is collaborative, supportive, and practical. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based strategies to help clients better understand their thoughts and emotions, develop healthier coping tools, and create meaningful changes in their lives.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and finding the right fit matters. If you’re interested in learning more or seeing whether we might work well together, feel free to reach out to schedule a free brief consultation!
