About
I work with children, teens, and adults to help them navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity and confidence. My approach is holistic and trauma-informed, supporting young adults in identifying and expressing their thoughts and emotions, understanding their patterns and triggers, and building practical, healthy coping skills. With a calm and compassionate presence balanced by a direct, grounded style, I strive to create a safe space where clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to begin their healing journey. I help young adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in self-doubt. My specialty is using CBT to identify unhelpful thought patterns, improve emotional regulation, and build practical coping tools. I offer a direct but supportive approach to help you gain clarity, feel more in control, and navigate life with more confidence.
