I use a combination of techniques including: cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, person-centered and other humanistic approaches.
Seeking therapy is a courageous first step towards better understanding how past and current experiences impact individual wellbeing. I believe the most important part of treatment is establishing a trusting client-therapist relationship. I work to build a warm, open environment so you feel safe when sharing difficult thoughts and feelings. There are times in life when our usual coping strategies are not enough and feelings of helplessness and inadequacy can take over. Therapy can help to successfully navigate life's challenges and make positive changes that will contribute to improved feelings of competence in managing relationships, transitions, and other stressors more productively.

From the outside, you’re doing well. You show up, take care of what needs to be done, and people rely on you. But underneath, it feels different. Everything takes more effort than it should. You’re tired in a way that rest doesn’t fix, and you find yourself wondering, “Why does this feel so hard?” You may have been told it’s anxiety, stress, or burnout. Sometimes it is. But for many women, there’s more beneath the surface—patterns that have gone unnoticed for years.

You’re navigating so much- relationships, expectations, career decisions, life pressures & all the other complexities of being human. Maybe part of you feels anxious or overwhelmed, while another part is exhausted from trying to keep everything together. You might even notice an inner critic that won’t let up, or a part that shuts down when things feel too intense. And still, there’s a part of you that wants something different- more ease, more clarity, more self-trust. Therapy can be a place where all of these parts are welcomed, understood, and supported.

Life is full of changes and uncertainty, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when things don’t go the way we expected. You may find yourself feeling stuck—especially when the harder you try to fix things, the more frustrated or helpless it feels. You are not alone, and certainly not broken. Often, these experiences reflect patterns shaped by our past experiences, relationships, and the expectations we’ve carried over times. In therapy, we'll work together to understand and gradually shift these patterns, reconnecting with your inner strengths and rebuilding confidence in navigating life’s ups and downs.

I draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and always work from a trauma-informed lens.
You’ve spent years holding it all together — strong, capable, and always there for everyone else. But lately, you’re tired. Anxious. Disconnected from who you really are. You wonder if anyone truly sees you… or if even you do.
