I help people build self-worth, learn self-compassion, and let go of shame, self-doubt, and perfectionism. I understand you want to improve how you feel, but may have trouble figuring out what steps to take to get there. You may be looking for more from your relationship or career, but don’t know how to go about doing so. Or maybe you want a more satisfying day-to-day life, but are feeling stuck. I can help provide relief in offering practical techniques for an improved quality of life.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am passionate about women's mental health and helping you lead a fulfilling life. I understand the difficulties in managing stress or experiencing symptoms of anxiety. During counseling services, I work to be mindful of the cultural expectations and other potential social variables that individuals, especially women, face in the world which effects your interpersonal experience.

With support in working toward your goals and in learning the skills needed to successfully manage your inner critic the benefits can be immeasurable.
