About
Want therapy that feels human, practical, & actually creates change? I help individuals move from surviving to truly living. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, unsure of their next step— & craving clarity, confidence, and emotional balance. I work from a combined Acceptance & Commitment Therapy & Cognitive Behavioral Therapy lens. ACT helps you understand your thoughts and feelings without getting tangled in them, reconnect with what matters most (your values), & take doable steps toward the life you want. CBT provides straightforward, skill-based strategies to break unhelpful thought patterns. Together, these approaches help you: understand why certain thoughts and feelings keep showing up, unhook from anxiety, self-doubt, or people-pleasing, clarify your values and direction, build practical coping skills you can use in real time, and change patterns that no longer serve you.
