My Approach to Therapy

You may not know exactly what needs to change, only that something isn’t working. Anxiety takes up too much space, emotions feel difficult to manage, relationships fall into familiar patterns, or you no longer feel like yourself. I work with teens, young adults, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, neurodivergence, substance use, relationship challenges, identity, and major life transitions. I also support LGBTQIA+ clients exploring identity and relationships, and I help parents and families strengthen communication and connection. My approach is warm, relational, and direct. We’ll look at what is happening in your life, what may be driving it, and why certain patterns continue. Therapy with me is a space to understand yourself more deeply, see things from new perspectives, and find practical ways to approach what’s happening in your life and relationships.
