About me
I am psychotherapist dedicated to helping children and young adults cope with anxiety, depression, and anger. With a warm, gentle, and collaborative approach, I specialize in transforming overwhelming emotions into opportunities for growth, resilience, and healing.
If you are living with a constant tightness in your chest, a stomach that knots up before social events, or a brain that simply won't turn off, you aren't alone. For many adolescents and young adults, anxiety isn't just a thought—it's a physical weight you carry every single day. You might find yourself shutting down, withdrawing from friends, or feeling irritable without knowing why. I specialize in helping young people understand their nervous systems and regain control over their lives. We won't just talk about the past; we will use practical, hands-on strategies to stop the panic and help you feel grounded again.
