Are you the person everyone depends on, yet you have a hard time asking for help yourself or saying no to others? You might feel stuck in perfectionism, or guilty when you try to set boundaries or put your own needs first. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, perfectionism, people pleasing, depression, difficult family dynamics, and the lasting impact of childhood trauma. I incorporate EMDR therapy to help clients process distressing experiences, reduce anxiety, and feel less stuck in patterns that no longer serve them.
Many of my clients are adult children of emotionally immature parents who learned to put everyone else's needs before their own. Together, we explore longstanding patterns, strengthen self-trust, and create healthier relationships built on authenticity, confidence, and self-compassion.
My practice is deeply affirming of diverse experiences, including first-gen clients, immigrants, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. I strive to create a supportive, compassionate space where you feel understood as you move toward healing and growth. Taking the first step can feel overwhelming, and I’d be honored to walk alongside you through the process.

I work from a warm, compassionate approach that helps clients better understand the connection between past experiences and present-day struggles. I believe healing happens when we can explore our experiences with curiosity and self-compassion rather than criticism and shame, allowing for greater insight, growth, and lasting change.
