About My Clients

As a student, is heavy stress and anxiety making it hard to feel steady, present, and focused on classes? You might get stuck in loops of overthinking about grades, deadlines, money, or the future, while your body stays tense and on edge. For some students, social anxiety is its own grind, making you skip gatherings or spend too long replaying conversations afterward. Anxiety can spill into perfectionism, stress-eating, zoning out, or leaning on weed or alcohol to take the edge off.

How I Can Help You

You deserve support that helps you function and feel better—not just pushing through, but building a foundation of well-being that lasts beyond the semester. In our work, we’ll address the anxiety and help you feel like yourself again with clearer thinking, a steadier mood, more ease in your body. I’ve spent 13 years helping people with anxiety, and I understand the unique pressures of college life. Together, we’ll find practical, compassionate ways for you to feel more grounded and zoned-in. My style is gentle and collaborative, yet active in guiding the work. You don’t have to power your way through alone. If this feels like a fit, use the online schedule link to book a free intro call.

My Values as a Therapist

In the therapy room, my primary focus is to honor and uplift your unique values, perspectives, and personality qualities that make you, you. As a compassionate and experienced guide, I’ll take you on a journey to truly understand yourself—empowering you to re-create your life in new, more fulfilling ways. I’ll help you get clearer about your individual strengths, challenges, and cultural influences, so that together we can develop personalized strategies that work. Therapy, for many, is not about fixing what is “wrong” within them, but about discovering new pathways to rise above societal inequalities and live with intention and authenticity.
