About My Clients
You've likely tried everything to fix it on your own. If you're anxious, perfectionistic, or caught in people-pleasing patterns, maybe you've been pushing harder, controlling more, or avoiding things that matter to you, only to find yourself more stuck. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, and identity questions, especially those balancing achievement with authenticity. We start with understanding what your mind and body have been protecting you from and build chance from there.
My Background and Approach
Building a strong therapeutic relationship is important. From there, I draw from a variety of approaches depending on what you need. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, or something else, most people want practical tools and strategies to manage difficult thoughts and emotions. Some want to process trauma. Some want to develop skills to better navigate relationships and maintain boundaries. Some want to understand the patterns that keep them stuck. Most people end up doing a bit of everything. Fortunately, I have training in multiple evidence-based treatments to help you engage with what matters most to you, so that your life is no longer dominated by whatever you struggle with.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe in the healing power of offering empathy, unconditional acceptance, and compassion. With those elements as the foundation of our relationship, self-awareness and behavior change are possible. In our work together, my goal is to help you become your best self--whatever that means to you. A lot of pain in life is inevitable and unavoidable. When we put a lot of effort into avoiding or getting rid of this pain, we can miss out on important things and even make things worse. I believe that you can have a bad childhood and learn to live a good life. I believe that you didn't cause your problems, but that you can solve them. I know these things from my own experience and from working with many people who were struggling. I want you to experience freedom and vitality, even on the bad days.
