About
Do you feel overwhelmed by your emotions or stuck in patterns that are hard to break? Maybe the past keeps showing up in ways that make it difficult to move forward. I work with clients to understand what’s keeping them stuck and to develop healthier, more compassionate ways of relating to their thoughts and emotions. Together, we focus on meaningful, sustainable change—building tools that support calm, self-awareness, and lasting growth. I specialize in helping adults and adolescents (age 13+) navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, and major life transitions. My approach blends proven therapeutic methods—including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and somatic and mindfulness-based techniques—with a warm, collaborative style. Reaching out for help takes courage, and it’s the first step toward real change. You deserve a space where you can slow down, breathe, and be fully seen without judgment. If you’re ready to begin your journey toward clarity, healing, and peace, I would be honored to walk alongside you.
"I often use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT helps you notice unhelpful thoughts and emotions without getting stuck in them. Rather than trying to eliminate these experiences, we'll focus on building skills to relate to them differently and stay connected to what truly matters to you. Throughout treatment, I'll support you in taking practical, values-driven steps toward a richer life."
