My ideal client feels overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, ADHD, the lingering effects of trauma or just stuck in life. They're seeking clarity, emotional balance, and a way to break free from negative thought patterns that keep them stuck. They want more than just coping mechanisms—they're looking to transform their life, to rediscover purpose and joy. Together, we’ll work to uncover what truly drives them, heal emotional wounds, and create a path toward their highest and best self.
I specialize in empowering clients through evidence-based approaches like CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Enhancement Therapy. My eclectic therapeutic toolbox helps you manage stress, build healthy relationships, and achieve your goals. With real-life experience and professional expertise, I guide you to lasting transformation.
I've been where you are, and I know the courage it takes to seek help. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, or trauma, you don't have to face it alone. I'm here to walk with you on your journey to healing and growth. Let's work together to create the life you deserve—one that’s full of meaning, balance, and joy. Reach out!
