Description

I help overachieving millennials & teens struggling with anxiety, overwhelm, and self-doubt feel more in control of their lives. With a compassionate, non-judgmental, and direct approach, I tailor therapy to your unique needs—providing practical skills while exploring root causes.  

Through a mix of practical tools and deeper self-exploration, you’ll learn to quiet self-doubt, manage stress effectively, and reconnect with what truly matters.

 My goal is to help you not just manage anxiety but truly heal, so you can set boundaries, trust yourself, and live with more ease.
