We all experience different seasons of change throughout our lives and I enjoy helping others navigate these changes and find new rhythms that work best for them. I work with college students who are adjusting to all of the new changes and stressors that college life can bring. I also work with women who are pregnant, have experienced loss, or are new mothers. Pregnancy and motherhood can bring different challenges and I love supporting women through this transition. Working together through individual therapy we can build on your strengths and help you to achieve your goals so you can live a healthy and fulfilling life.

Sometimes, life can be challenging, confusing, and even paralyzing, but it does not need to stay that way. I know that it can be difficult to seek help, especially if you have never done it before.

My goal is not to pull or push you to change, instead, it is to walk alongside, providing you with guidance and empathy. If you have been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, with low mood, and overall just exhausted, I'm here to help. It doesn't have to stay this way, and it can get better!

Do you feel different than the majority of the population? Are you a people pleaser and want to do the "right thing" yet struggle to make decisions? Do you feel a drive to be a perfectionist, avoid mistakes, internalize criticism and then continue being hard on yourself? Are you overstimulated by sensory input and/or feel exhausted more easily than others? These are some traits of a highly sensitive person. When these traits are unknown or misunderstood, they can lead a person to feel "something is wrong with them" leading to anxiety, rumination, overthinking, sleep problems, low motivation/energy and other depression symptoms.

I want you to stick with me for a minute...What would it feel like to be able to wake up and not have food, weight, and exercise at the forefront of your mind? What if you could manage your emotions, even distressing ones, without turning to behaviors that are no longer serving you?
