About My Clients

Feeling Overwhelmed, Drained, or Stuck? If stress, anxiety, or burnout are making life feel exhausting, you’re not alone. The constant pressure, racing thoughts, and emotional exhaustion can be overwhelming—but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I provide a supportive space to help you regain balance, manage stress, and rebuild your energy. Using proven strategies, we’ll work together to help you feel more in control, at peace, and ready to move forward. You deserve to feel better.

My Background and Approach

A Supportive & Practical Approach to Therapy Therapy should feel like a conversation, not a lecture. I create a warm, judgment-free space where we can tackle whatever’s weighing on you—whether it’s anxiety, depression, relationships, identity, or life transitions. I especially understand the unique challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community and women navigating male-centered spaces. I tailor sessions to you, using evidence-based approaches that focus on your strengths and practical solutions. Together, we’ll explore the “why” behind your thoughts and feelings, helping you gain clarity and control. I also provide helpful resources—like podcasts, readings, or small exercises—so you can keep making progress between sessions. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. Let’s work together to help you feel stronger, more confident, and in control of your life.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Let's Navigate Life’s Challenges Together I believe you already have the strength and resilience to overcome life’s challenges—you just might need a little support to tap into it. My approach is direct yet compassionate, offering practical insights and tools to help you start feeling better, faster. Outside of therapy, you’ll find me relaxing by the pool with a good book, gardening, or spending time with loved ones (including my furry friends!). I’d love the opportunity to support you on your journey—let’s work together to help you feel more confident, balanced, and in control. Your path matters, and I’m here to walk it with you!
