About

You’ve been trying to hold it together for everyone else — but inside, you’re exhausted and overwhelmed. If you’re struggling with anxiety, trauma, OCD, depression, parenting, or life transitions, therapy can help you find your footing again. After all life is meant to be lived-not just survived! I work with adults who are ready to stop “just coping” and start learning real tools to manage their emotions and thoughts. My style is warm, honest, and collaborative — no judgment, no jargon. We’ll talk about what’s really going on, and I’ll teach you concrete skills you can use in daily life to feel more in control. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), and ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) to help you understand your patterns and make lasting change. We will also emphasize boundaries and self care. We'll identify the issue, practice skills, and work together to help you feel more grounded.
