About

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re trying to find your footing. Change, pressure, and expectations can leave you feeling stuck or stretched thin. I offer a warm, inclusive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your challenges, reflect on what matters most to you, and build practical tools to feel more balanced, confident, and empowered. I work with teens through adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and those times when everything feels like too much. My approach is collaborative, empathetic, and supportive. In our sessions, you don’t need to have the right words—just showing up is enough. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing on you and discover practical ways to feel more centered, confident, and connected in your daily life. You don’t have to face this alone. You deserve support, and there’s no better time to start than today. Specialties: I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I provide an inclusive, affirming space and have expertise working with the LGBTQ community Credentials & Experience: Experience working with high-performing individuals, including dancers, college students, and healthcare professionals

"I take an integrative, evidence-based approach, drawing from cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, and humanistic frameworks. We will work together to identify obstacles, build practical skills, and foster insight and resilience."
