My interest in psychology began with my own healing. I grew up in a home touched by unhealed trauma, and entered adulthood struggling with depression and anxiety, often feeling lost and disconnected from my feelings. Eventually, I realized I needed support.
Working with a therapist who was kind and skilled, I experienced healing and growth. I learned to be kinder to myself and build healthier relationships. I’m grateful for the meaningful, fulfilling life I have today.
The approaches that supported me are now at the heart of my work. I’m passionate about helping others soften self-criticism, work through emotional pain, and feel more at ease within themselves.
My Personal Healing Journey
Support that meets you where you are
Compassionate, evidence-based therapy to help you ease anxiety, heal emotional pain, and reconnect with your sense of self.

Mindfulness & Body Awareness
We bring attention to your lived experience — your emotions, sensations, and nervous system — helping you reconnect with your body and access clarity that doesn’t come from thinking alone.
PARTS WORK THERAPY
(IFS-INFORMED)
We gently explore the different parts of you — the ones that feel anxious, overwhelmed, self-critical, shut down, or exhausted. As these parts begin to feel seen and understood, inner conflict often softens and a steadier sense of self can emerge.
Grounding &
Regulation Tools
You’ll learn practical, supportive tools to help you feel more calm, centered, and steady in daily life — especially during moments of stress, emotional intensity, or overwhelm.
Our work together begins with creating a space where you don’t have to perform, explain everything perfectly, or “have it all figured out.”
You’re welcome just as you are.
Sessions move at your pace. We follow what feels meaningful for you — whether that means talking through what you’re struggling with right now, gently tending to long-standing emotional patterns, or simply having a place to breathe and be heard.
Along the way, we may draw from approaches such as:
What Therapy With Me Feels Like
You don’t need to fit neatly into a category to belong here.
Areas I Commonly Support
DEPRESSION & EMOTIONAL PAIN
If life feels heavy, empty, or exhausting, our work offers a space where you don’t have to fix yourself to be worthy of care. Together, we gently support the parts of you that feel weary, discouraged, or disconnected from meaning and vitality.
Anxiety & Overthinking
When your mind feels constantly busy, worried, or on edge, therapy can help you slow things down, understand what’s driving the anxiety, and develop a greater sense of calm and inner steadiness.
Life Transitions & Uncertainty
Career changes, relocations, grief, caregiving, and relational shifts can stir up confusion and overwhelm. Therapy can help you sort through what’s changing, clarify what matters to you, and move forward with more ease, understanding, and confidence.
Stress, Burnout & Nervous System Fatigue
If you feel chronically exhausted, stretched too thin, or emotionally depleted, we explore what’s draining your energy — including patterns like over-giving, people-pleasing, and perfectionism — while also supporting you in developing a kinder relationship with yourself.
SELF-ESTEEM & THE INNER CRITIC
If your inner voice is harsh, judgmental, or never satisfied, we work to soften that inner critic and cultivate a more supportive relationship with yourself — one rooted in self-respect, compassion, and inner kindness.
