About me
I’m a warm and collaborative therapist supporting teens and young adults as they navigate relationships, self-esteem, and finding their direction.
Life can feel overwhelming when stress, self-doubt, or past experiences start to take up more space than you want them to. You might notice familiar patterns showing up in your relationships, feel stretched thin by everything on your plate, or feel disconnected from yourself. Having space to make sense of what you’re feeling can help you move toward changes that feel more aligned with how you want your life to look and feel.
I work with teens and young adults navigating anxiety, neurodivergence, trauma, perfectionism, relationship challenges, and the difficulties that can come with finding direction, motivation, and independence. My style is warm, collaborative, and honest, with a focus on helping you turn insight into meaningful change.
As we work together, we’ll identify what helps you feel more confident, connected, and fulfilled, and start making changes in ways that fit your life. We’ll move at your pace. If this feels right for you, reach out today!
