Introduction

Life can be heavy sometimes. Whether you're navigating grief, anxiety, depression, past trauma, or challenges in your relationships, it can be hard to keep everything balanced—especially when you’re trying to do it all on your own. I work with teens and adults who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just not like themselves. Some are carrying painful experiences that still affect them in the present. Others are managing mood changes, anxiety, or patterns in their relationships they’re ready to change. In therapy, I offer a supportive space where you can explore what’s going on beneath the surface—at your own pace. I use a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic, and Solution Focused Therapy to help you better understand your emotions, shift unhelpful patterns, and build tools for lasting change. You don’t have to have it all figured out before you start. We’ll work together to create a space that feels safe, collaborative, and focused on what matters most to you.
