About My Clients

Do you often feel anxious or uncertain? Emerging adulthood, becoming a parent, or experiencing a loss or life event can leave you feeling unsure and overwhelmed. My clients feel overwhelmed or anxious as they go through challenging life transitions or feel stuck playing out the same unhelpful patterns in their life. I help young professionals and emerging adults find more self-acceptance and confidence in who they are.

My Background and Approach

We all struggle at some point in our lives; I believe struggle is part of the human experience. When we find ourselves struggling or feeling unprepared for life’s challenges, we can feel isolated and alone. My role is to normalize this human experience and find ways for clients to feel more empowered and confident in order to reach their goals. I consider my relationship with clients to be a collaborative partnership; I will help you tune out the external and internal expectations so you can connect with what really matters to you now. Together, we will explore your goals and how we can address the worry, anxiety, isolation, guilt, grief, or unhelpful patterns in life that are barriers to reaching your potential. I use an eclectic blend of approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy, to address your unique needs and learning style.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Compassion is a core value for me, not only within the therapeutic space but across all areas of my life. I believe everyone deserves compassion for themselves and from others. With compassion comes understanding and the opportunity for a collaborative and trusting relationship between myself and my clients.
