About My Clients

Feeling overwhelmed with everything you are managing? Constantly putting your own needs last? Are you struggling with what you're feeling because you "should" feel great? Maybe these feelings are new. Maybe these are things you have felt for a long time and can't ignore any longer. You deserve more in life! I am passionate about helping my clients claim a sense of control over their stress and building a life they enjoy living.

My Background and Approach

My work helps you to incorporate seamless habits into your existing routine so that you can feel some quick relief from stress and anxiety and have tools you can easily use to relax when needed. As you start to feel better, we work on increasing your self-understanding and recognizing patterns so that you can make sustainable changes in your life.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Everyone struggles sometimes and we all have the capacity to grow and change. Some days we can give it 110%. Some days good enough needs to be good enough. Sometimes we need to know when to give ourselves a break. Finding this balance can be our toughest challenge. We are often our toughest critic! I believe that some of the most important work we can do in therapy is to make peace with ourselves and our inner critic, but also know that many people come to therapy when they are feeling so overwhelmed that getting through the day can feel daunting. My work helps clients incorporate seamless habits into their existing routines so that they can feel some quick relief from stress and anxiety and have tools that they can easily use to relax when needed. As they start to feel better, we work on increasing self-understanding and recognizing patterns to make sustainable life changes. Confronting our inner critic in therapy can be hard work and scary at times but is worth the effort!
