About My Clients

I love working with clients who know they want change but aren’t sure where to begin. Maybe you’ve struggled understanding why you may have maladaptive coping skills, cope with stress on your own, or manage emotions that feel too big. If you’re open to learning skills, exploring underlying patterns, and having honest conversations about what’s working and what isn’t, I’m here to help guide that process.

My Background and Approach

I integrate existential theory with DBT to help clients navigate both the practical and the deeply personal. This means we’ll work on emotional regulation and coping skills while also exploring the bigger questions—identity, purpose, relationships, and meaning. My style is grounded, curious, and reflective. I aim to create a space where you can safely examine your life, understand yourself more fully, and move toward alignment.
