New to Grow
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of experience helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and major life transitions. I take an integrative approach, combining attachment-based, family systems, and psychodynamic principles, along with practical strategies to help clients regulate their nervous system and build clarity, resilience, and sustainable change. I work with adults managing high-pressure situations, including athletes, professionals, and women balancing work, life, and identity challenges. Clients leave sessions feeling more grounded, understood, and equipped to manage stress, anxiety, and performance pressures. They gain insight into patterns in their emotions, relationships, and behavior, develop tools to navigate overwhelm, and strengthen their sense of agency — creating meaningful, sustainable change in both their personal and professional lives.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know you and your goals for therapy. I’ll ask about your current challenges, patterns in emotions and relationships, and what brought you to therapy. Together, we’ll explore how your nervous system, stress, and life circumstances may be affecting you, and discuss ways we can work together to build insight, regulation, and practical strategies. This session is a safe space to share openly, ask questions, and begin creating a plan that meets your unique needs.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strengths are my ability to help clients regulate their nervous system, understand patterns in their emotions and relationships, and navigate complex life and family dynamics. I combine attachment-based, family systems, and psychodynamic approaches with practical strategies to reduce stress, anxiety, and overwhelm. Clients benefit from my integrative style, gaining insight, clarity, and tools to manage high-pressure situations, life transitions, and identity challenges, ultimately creating meaningful and sustainable change.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I work best with adults navigating stress, anxiety, overwhelm, or high-pressure situations, including athletes, professionals, and parents. I also support women balancing work, life, and identity challenges, as well as adults experiencing major life transitions or struggles with personal and relational patterns. My ideal clients are ready to explore their emotions, relationships, and behavior, and are committed to building insight, resilience, and meaningful, sustainable change in their lives.
Integrative
I take an integrative approach, helping clients regulate their nervous system and explore patterns in emotions, relationships, and behavior. I work through an attachment-based, family systems lens, using psychodynamic principles and the therapeutic relationship to understand each person’s experience. I support adults navigating stress, anxiety, overwhelm, or performance pressures — including athletes, professionals, and women balancing work, life, and identity challenges — as well as those experiencing major life transitions. My goal is to help clients build clarity, resilience, and sustainable change.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I incorporate mind-body and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients develop awareness of their physiological and emotional states. By focusing on nervous system regulation, breath, and present-moment awareness, I support clients in managing stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and performance pressures. These techniques are integrated into the broader therapy process, alongside attachment-based, family systems, and psychodynamic work, to help clients gain clarity, resilience, and sustainable change.
Attachment-based
I use attachment-based principles to help clients understand relational patterns and how early and current relationships impact emotions, behavior, and coping strategies. By exploring attachment dynamics within the therapeutic relationship and family systems, I support clients in building healthier connections, improving emotional regulation, and gaining insight into patterns that affect stress, anxiety, and overwhelm. This approach is integrated into my broader therapy work, including psychodynamic, family systems, and mindfulness-informed techniques.
