We all stumble, but sometimes life's challenges make typical ups and downs harder to navigate. Relationship struggles, shifting goals, social pressures or the added stress that comes with change can leave us overwhelmed, make us feel stuck, make us question if we're good enough or make make our decisions feel impossible. Support can help us to examine our paths and patterns and to regain the confidence that we can build the life we want.
I'm passionate about working with those facing anxiety, self-esteem struggles or periods of change. I aim to understand you're going through and help you explore it from new angles so you can begin to feel relief and to shift patterns that have you stuck, improving relationships, overcoming obstacles and building confidence and clarity.
It can be hard to reach out for help and it’s important to find support that fits well with you. If you’d like to get a better feel for who I am or how I work, I am happy to connect with a free call or a video chat before we meet.

With an integrative practice I tailor the experience to each client's individual needs, taking the time to explain why I think particular things will be helpful and working with clients to choose interventions that feel right for them. Technically, I pull from CBT, DBT, IPT, ACT, Rogerian, feminist, schema therapy and EMDR approaches. I'm happy to discuss these further in a consult if that helps.
