About My Clients
As a kid, you were told you were "too sensitive" or "too emotional" and struggled to keep in all of your big feelings. You worked hard, got good grades, tried to keep the peace in your household, but despite looking "perfect" on the outside, you constantly felt (and continue to feel!) stressed out, "on-guard", overwhelmed, and exhausted. I get it - it's tiring trying to be perfect, but it doesn't have to be this way forever. Together, we can help you learn the skills to reduce your anxiety.
My Background and Approach
I've worked with clients of all ages, from little kids in play therapy to empty nesters reflecting on their life journeys. I've been in hospital settings, private practice, and schools. I taught college students with completely different backgrounds, passions, and upbringings. The one thing they all had in common was their desire to be accepted, loved, and connected in a community. That is why, as a therapist, I focus on helping clients feel safe again, so they are able to trust others, form fulfilling relationships, find their purpose, and accomplish their goals. Together, we'll explore how past experiences can affect our ability to form meaningful bonds as we grow up, learn new coping skills, and get to the bottom of the issues stopping you from living the life you actually want.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that each individual who comes through my door not only has the capacity to create the change they are longing for, but is deserving of it. Everyone deserves to feel that sense of safety and calm so they no longer feel controlled by the circumstances of their lives and their mental health struggles, and I am honored that I get to be apart of that journey with you. If you are ready to take back control of your life, let's get started.
