My Approach to Helping

When life feels overwhelming—whether you’re facing anxiety, relationship challenges, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you—it’s normal to feel lost or unsure of the next step. In our work together, my goal is to provide a warm, supportive space where you can explore your experiences, gain insights, and discover a path that aligns with your values and aspirations.

I approach therapy with a mix of curiosity, warmth, and humor, always keeping collaboration at the heart of the process. I believe in helping you reshape the stories that hold you back, uncover new perspectives, and build healthier relationships with yourself and others. Together, we’ll identify the challenges you’re facing and develop practical strategies that create lasting, meaningful change.

You’ll find that I don’t see myself as the expert on your life—you are. I’m here to help guide the process, offering a fresh perspective and and an approach that assists you in finding greater clarity and fulfillment. Whether you’re navigating stress, life transitions, or relationship difficulties, we’ll work together to build a more fulfilling life that feels true to who you are.

I also offer 6-week groups in DIGITAL WELLBEING for both TEENS and PARENTS.
