Do you feel stuck in overthinking, anxiety, or constant worry—even when things “should” be fine? Or like you’re carrying stress all the time and can’t fully shut your mind off? I provide a supportive, affirming space to help you slow down, feel understood, and start feeling more grounded again. I work with individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected—especially during life transitions, relationship stress, or seasons of burnout. Therapy with me is a place to sort through what’s been weighing on you and build practical tools you can actually use in real life. With couples, I help partners improve communication, break out of repeating cycles, and rebuild emotional safety, trust, and connection. I work with both heterosexual and LGBTQ+ couples, and I prioritize creating a space where each person feels heard and respected. With individuals, I support clients who want to manage anxiety, reduce rumination, strengthen boundaries, and feel more confident in their decisions and relationships. My style is supportive, honest, and collaborative—focused on insight and progress. If you’re ready to feel more clear, steady, and in control of your life and relationships, I’d be glad to work with you.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session is a chance for us to get clear on what’s been going on and what’s been feeling the hardest lately. We’ll talk about how it’s affecting your day-to-day life, what you want to be different, and what you’ve already tried. Together, we’ll start identifying realistic goals and practical next steps—especially if you’re dealing with anxiety, overthinking, or feeling stuck in the same patterns. You’ll leave with more clarity and a sense of direction.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I meet people—and couples—exactly where they are. I focus on creating a supportive environment that encourages real change—where you feel safe enough to be honest, and supported enough to try something different. Clients often leave sessions feeling calmer, more emotionally clear, and more confident about their next steps. My style is supportive, honest, and collaborative. We’ll focus on what’s actually keeping you stuck—whether that’s overthinking, anxiety, relationship stress, or repeating patterns—and work toward practical changes you can use outside of session. The goal is for you to feel more clear, confident, and steady in your everyday life.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with adults who feel stuck in their own head—overthinking, second-guessing, and feeling unsure about what to do next. On the outside, things might look fine, but internally it feels overwhelming or exhausting to keep up. Many of my clients are navigating anxiety, relationship stress, or major life transitions. They want clarity, better communication, and to feel more confident in their decisions—but aren’t sure how to get there. Therapy with me feels like a real conversation. We focus on understanding patterns, getting out of unhelpful loops, and making practical changes that actually stick. Together, we work toward clearer thinking, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of direction in your life.

My very first time ever seeing a therapist and I feel great. She's a wonderful person to talk to and she has a very open aura that makes it really easy to open up to her and share things without fear. I'm excited to continue our journey.

Asked great questions, pushed back on my thinking in a way helped me notice my own biases. Excited to keep working with her.
