Specialties

I specialize in anxiety and emotional regulation, trauma and PTSD (including EMDR), play therapy for children, life transitions, and self-esteem and identity work

helping clients feel more grounded, confident, and supported as they navigate life’s challenges. Many people seek therapy not because they are failing, but because they are tired—tired of the constant mental noise, the pressure to hold everything together, or the quiet weight of navigating life on their own. You may appear to be functioning well on the outside, yet feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stretched thin internally. Whether you’re a child learning to express big emotions, a teen building confidence and self-awareness, or an adult navigating anxiety, identity shifts, or life transitions, therapy offers a space to slow down, gain clarity, and reconnect with yourself in a meaningful way.
