Hey there – I'm so glad you found your way here. If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, or just a little disconnected from yourself lately—you’re not alone. Showing up (even just browsing for a therapist) is a powerful first step, and I’m here to meet you with compassion, curiosity, and zero judgment. I'm a therapist who gets sensitive souls and deep feelers—especially young adults navigating anxiety, burnout, grief, complicated family dynamics, and all the messy parts of growing into yourself. If you’re craving stronger boundaries, more self-trust, or just want to feel like you again, you’re in the right place. My approach is rooted in mindfulness, self-compassion, and a trauma-informed lens. That means we’ll go at your pace, honor your lived experiences, and make space for real, sustainable healing—not just a quick fix. Therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical or heavy all the time. It can also be empowering, affirming, even a little lighthearted. Together, we’ll untangle what’s been holding you back, gently shift what no longer fits, and help you reconnect with the version of you that feels grounded, confident, and more at home in your own life. You don’t have to go it alone. I’m here to walk alongside you.
In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and talk about what’s bringing you to therapy. You’re welcome to share at your own pace — there’s no pressure to tell your whole story right away. I’ll ask some gentle questions about your current challenges, your history, and your goals, so we can begin to understand the bigger picture together. My priority is creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. We’ll also talk about what therapy might look like moving forward and answer any questions you have about the process. Think of it as the start of a collaborative journey — one where you don’t have to figure it all out alone.
What stands out about my therapeutic approach is the balance I offer between gentle validation and meaningful insight. I don’t just listen — I help you make sense of your experiences, uncover patterns, and build practical tools rooted in evidence-based methods. My style is collaborative, warm, and nonjudgmental, with a strong foundation in trauma-informed care. I integrate modalities like CBT, IFS, and mindfulness to help you understand your inner world and develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself. Clients often tell me they feel deeply seen, supported, and empowered to make changes they once thought weren’t possible. My goal is to help you not only manage symptoms, but experience more peace, clarity, and alignment in your daily life.
I’m best positioned to support sensitive, self-aware individuals who often find themselves overwhelmed by life’s demands—those who appear “high-functioning” on the outside but feel anxious, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected on the inside. Many of my clients are navigating major life transitions, relationship wounds, or the lingering impact of growing up in emotionally immature or enmeshed family systems. They’re not afraid of doing deep work—they just need a safe, compassionate space to untangle their thoughts, understand their patterns, and reconnect with their needs. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, people-pleasing, self-doubt, or grief, I’ll meet you with warmth, curiosity, and a trauma-informed approach. Together, we’ll work toward more clarity, boundaries, and a deeper sense of self-trust.
I help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with more balanced, compassionate thinking. CBT is effective for anxiety, low self-esteem, and navigating life transitions.
I use mindfulness to help clients slow down, notice their thoughts and emotions without judgement, and build greater self-awareness and emotional regulation. This is especially helpful for those who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected from themselves.
My warm, validating style creates safety for clients with past trauma or shame. I integrate elements of Compassion-Focused Therapy to help individuals reduce self-blame, build inner trust, and move forward toward healing with gentleness.
