(she/her)
Do you find it difficult to offer yourself the same kindness, compassion, and grace you would a friend or loved one? Do you have a hard time regulating your emotions and embodying challenging emotions? I am a digital nomad with a telehealth practice. I believe therapy is a sacred space and I'm honored to share it with you. I practice from a place of authenticity and curiosity. My style is empowering, warm, and humorous. My vibe is casual and light hearted. It's a heavy and difficult time in the world. I see a lot of hopelessness, helplessness, and burnout. We are collectively having a difficult time thriving in our current environment. I want to support you in actively choosing hope, even on the days when it feels impossible. You've got this!

The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I focus primarily on neurodivergent women in their thirties. During this demanding time, there are many life transitions and identity shifts to explore. Adulting can be a busy phase of life where extra support, compassion, and care are critical. My wish is for you to not only survive, but thrive through developing your own rituals and routines.
