I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or adjusting to a new chapter, I aim to create a supportive space where you feel heard and understood.

I seek to provide a warm, open environment where all parts of you are welcome. I believe your emotional and psychological safety is my top priority. I seek to make your empowerment my focus and often work from a root-causing healing approach and focus on your innate resilience and build practical coping/calm tools on your journey to healing. We will work as a team to define what healing looks like for you. My mind/body connection approach and evidence based approaches provide you tools to use outside of our sessions.
