Supporting your journey.

Helping individuals and couples with…

Depression

Feeling overwhelmed by sadness or a lack of motivation? You’re not alone. Therapy can help you break free from those heavy feelings. Together, we’ll uncover the thought patterns contributing to your depression and work on building self-compassion and emotional resilience. I’ll provide you with practical tools to rediscover joy, motivation, and strength—helping you move toward a brighter outlook on life.

Anxiety

Struggling with anxiety? It’s more common than you might think, and therapy can help you find relief. Anxiety can show up in many ways, and together, we’ll explore your specific experience. We’ll work on understanding the root causes, challenging anxious thoughts, and developing personalized coping strategies that actually work for you. My goal is to help you regain control, find calm, and build confidence so that you can navigate life with more peace.

PTSD & Trauma Therapy

Healing from trauma or PTSD is a journey, and you don’t have to do it alone. My approach is trauma-informed, which means we take things at your pace, making sure you feel safe every step of the way. I use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help you process painful memories, rebuild trust, and regain control over your life. We’ll work together to transform your pain into strength, so you can feel empowered and whole again.

Relationship Counseling for Couples

Relationships can be complicated, but therapy can make a world of difference. Whether you’re facing communication struggles, working through past betrayals, or just feeling disconnected, I’m here to guide you. In couples therapy, we’ll focus on improving communication, setting healthy boundaries, and strengthening the emotional bond between you. Whether you're healing old wounds or looking to grow closer, I’ll help you both create a relationship built on trust and understanding.

Self-Esteem & Self-Compassion Therapy

If you struggle with low self-esteem or find it hard to be kind to yourself, you don’t have to navigate that alone. Therapy for self-esteem helps you challenge negative self-talk and build a more positive relationship with yourself. Together, we’ll work on boosting your confidence, improving your self-worth, and helping you live a life that feels aligned with who you truly are—without the constant self-criticism.

"True growth happens when you feel safe, understood, and empowered, which is why I strive to create a space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions without fear or judgment.”
