About

You are safe.

In this space, you are safe to be your true self, no matter what that looks like.

Our nervous systems are often on high alert, buzzing away in the background, even when we’re not aware of it. Feeling genuinely safe is a crucial ingredient for relaxation and healing. Together, we’ll create an environment that sends clear signals to your brain: “It’s okay to relax. It’s okay to let go.”

You don’t need to show up perfectly composed, and you certainly don’t need to have everything figured out. We’ll work together to tame that overactive mind – not by forcing it into submission, but by understanding its patterns and learning to work with them.

You’ll find that navigating your inner world becomes less like fighting a battle and more like embarking on an adventure of self-discovery.

How do you get there?

This is where our therapeutic relationship comes into play.

Therapy isn’t just about talking; it’s about creating a space where your mind and body can synchronize – a space that says, “It’s okay to feel, to relax, to heal.”

Together, we’ll foster a connection that lets you know deep down that it’s safe to slow down and breathe – because sometimes that’s the first step toward feeling better.

Learn to be present.

You know that feeling when your mind is racing in all directions at once – caught up in worries about the future or replaying the past? It’s exhausting. Instead of trying to push those thoughts away, we’ll focus on creating a bit of space around them. Not to make them disappear (because that doesn’t work and is not our goal) but to be with them in a way that feels less overwhelming.

Being present means learning to sit with the messy parts, to be okay with the uncertainties, and to breathe through the moments when things feel tough. The present is where life happens, and I’m here to help you ground yourself in it. Together, we’ll figure out how to stop rushing through life’s challenges and find clarity and peace – even when things get shaky. You’ll discover you can handle life’s ups and downs more quickly (and maybe even a smile).

Mindfulness is more than a buzzword.

Yes, mindfulness has become the “avocado toast” of therapy: trendy, overused, and tossed around like it’s the magic solution to everything. But here’s the thing – when treated with the respect it deserves, mindfulness is an ancient practice with deep roots that has served so many beyond being just a tool to help with relaxation – although it certainly supports that.

Mindfulness isn’t about trying to escape the reality of your life. It’s about staying grounded in chaos, finding balance amid the mess, and showing up fully in the moment. When we treat mindfulness as more than just a buzzword, we uncover that it’s a gift, allowing us to live a more fully human and authentic life.

Together, we won’t just dabble in mindfulness like it’s some fleeting trend. We’ll explore it with intention, helping you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and find peace here and now. This isn’t about forcing calm; it’s about learning to live more mindfully so that you can handle whatever life throws your way with more grace and groundedness.

Here’s what it’s like to work with me.

Imagine walking into a space where you can finally take that deep breath you didn’t even realize you were holding. When we work together, that’s precisely what you can expect. This is your space to be yourself – no filters, no fronts, no need to “have it all together.”

I’m not here to fix you because you don’t need to be fixed. Instead, we’ll work together to explore what’s been weighing on you, help you see things from new perspectives, and give you the tools to manage life’s challenges in an empowering way. Yes, we’ll dig into the tough stuff, but we’ll also laugh and find moments of lightness. Most importantly, we’ll work toward a place where you feel at home within yourself – navigating life with ease and self-compassion.
