If trauma is still running your life, OCD has you trapped in cycles you can't break, or depression has left you feeling numb, stuck, and disconnected from the life you used to want—I want you to know: this can change, and you don't have to face it alone.

My path to this work started with my own mental health journey. I know what it feels like to struggle from the inside—and I know how life-changing the right support can be. That's exactly why I bring deep empathy, zero judgment, and evidence-based tools designed to create real, lasting change—not just coping, but building a life that feels like yours again.

I have a Master's Degree in Counseling, Marriage, and Family from Phillips Graduate Institute.

As a Board Certified Counselor, I primarily work with women navigating anxiety, OCD, burnout, and perfectionism—especially those who appear highly capable on the outside but internally feel overwhelmed by pressure and self-criticism.

I help Millennial and Gen Z women who may look successful and composed on the outside, yet internally they may feel exhausted by constant mental pressure, overthinking, or the need to maintain control over every detail.

​I helps clients understand the deeper patterns that drive perfectionism, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion while developing healthier ways of navigating ambition, responsibility, and personal well-being.
