LCSW, 8 years of experience
You’re the one people count on. You show up, check the boxes, keep things running—and most people have no idea how heavy it’s been to carry it all. Lately, the stress is harder to hide. You might find yourself lying awake at night replaying conversations, saying “yes” when you wish you’d said “no,” or feeling disconnected from the person you used to be. On the outside, you’re holding it together. On the inside, you’re exhausted, anxious, and wondering if life is supposed to feel this heavy.
In our first session, we’ll focus on what’s bringing you here, what you’d like to work on, and any questions you have about the process. There’s no pressure to share everything at once—we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, understood, and hopeful about the changes ahead.
What stands out about my approach is the emphasis on creating a safe, compassionate space where you can slow down and truly be heard. I combine evidence-based methods like CBT and ACT with mindfulness and self-compassion practices, so our work feels both grounding and practical. I meet you where you are, without pressure or judgment, and we move at a pace that feels right for you. Clients often share that therapy feels like a place to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with who they really are.
I work with women ages 25+ who are navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, or major life transitions. My clients are often sensitive, capable, and high-achieving—but under the surface, they feel overwhelmed, burnt out, or unsure of their next step. They’re ready to feel calmer, set boundaries that actually stick, and live in a way that feels authentic and sustainable. My approach is warm, compassionate, and straightforward. I blend evidence-based methods like CBT and ACT with mindfulness and self-compassion practices, so you not only understand what’s going on but also have tools that actually work in daily life. In our sessions, we might untangle old patterns, practice new ways of responding, and explore how to show up in your life with more clarity, confidence, and peace. I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation—sometimes deep, sometimes lighthearted, but always centered on what matters most to you.
