About
I believe at various times we all move through seasons of life marked by anxiety, self-doubt, overthinking, perfectionism, or people-pleasing. These patterns can leave you feeling overwhelmed, like decision-making is a constant struggle, relationships feel strained, repetitive or compulsive behaviors emerge to manage discomfort, or you’re stuck in a life transition without a clear path forward. I believe we do not have to face these moments alone. Together, we will identify effective coping strategies, build self-esteem, shift unhelpful thinking patterns, and establish healthier boundaries. My approach is collaborative and personalized to your unique identity and experiences. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, seen, and supported. Through our work, you will move toward your goals, whether that’s improving relationships, easing anxiety, setting boundaries, or gaining skills to face life’s challenges with confidence.
