About me

As a licensed therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. My approach centers on compassionate, holistic care for adults seeking meaningful support through stress, anxiety, and life transitions.

I bring a depth of understanding to challenges like anxiety, medical and health related setbacks, workplace stress/burnout/compassion fatigue, professional purpose and career exploration, and personal identity exploration. My therapeutic work focuses on helping clients develop self-understanding, improve communication, decrease self-criticism, navigate stressful work environments, and rediscover their sense of purpose.

I offer a nuanced approach to healing that honors each individual's unique journey. I have an extensive background in mindfulness, somatic practices, Internal Family Systems, and self-compassion. Whether you're facing chronic health challenges, workplace difficulties, or personal transitions, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy, respect, and professional guidance.

My practice welcomes individuals seeking support through various life stages, with a particular sensitivity high-achievers and burnout, midlife experiences, grief, retirement, aging, and complex emotional landscapes. Together, we'll work collaboratively to develop resilient coping strategies and meaningful pathways toward personal wellness.
