About
It can be exhausting feeling the urge to fix everything and everyone, the pressure to perform and excel, and having to hold it together 24/7. I offer a warm, compassionate space where you don't have to keep that facade going. In the therapeutic space, you can express yourself freely and authentically, while reconnecting with yourself and finding calm amidst the chaos. Through therapy we can dive into what's causing you to feel distressed, heal trauma wounds, embrace your own resiliency, identify triggers and maladaptive patterns, set boundaries, challenge cycles of self-doubt and insecurity, and help you ride the waves of life. I primarily work with women, young adults, and teens who struggle with anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, and people-pleasing tendencies. I utilize an holistic and eclectic approach with my clients to help them feel grounded, cultivate self-compassion and self-forgiveness, and to explore the connection between their emotional, mental, and physical states.
