Welcome!

I offer counseling for sensitive young adults and adults navigating stress, anxiety, perfectionism, intense emotions, relationship challenges, or questions about identity and belonging.

You are layered, dynamic, and whole. We all deserve a space where we can set down the roles we carry, explore our inner experiences with curiosity, and make sense of the challenges that shape our lives. Counseling can be a place to deepen self-understanding, reconnect with yourself, and create meaningful change.

Through a warm, grounded, and DBT-informed approach, I help clients build the skills and awareness needed to create a life that feels more connected, balanced, and meaningful.


You may be someone who feels deeply, notices everything, and spends a lot of time caring for others. While these qualities can be strengths, they can also leave you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself.

Working Together

  • I believe therapy works best when people feel genuinely seen rather than judged. My approach blends elements of DBT and somatic awareness while helping clients better understand emotional and relational patterns. I see the therapeutic relationship as central to the work, so I take time getting to know each client in order to tailor therapy to their unique needs and nervous system.

    • feel emotions deeply and become overwhelmed easily

    • overthink conversations, decisions, or relationships

    • tend to absorb other people’s emotions or needs

    • struggle with anxiety, emotional intensity, or burnout

    • are hard on yourself despite appearing capable

    • find yourself constantly managing other people’s emotions while struggling to make space for your own

    • often feel responsible for keeping things together

    • crave deeper self-understanding and authenticity

    • tend to hide emotional vulnerability behind competence or self-control

    • want therapy that feels thoughtful, collaborative, and human

  • Counseling with me tends to be conversational, reflective, and grounded in real life. Some sessions may focus on slowing down and making sense of emotions or relationship dynamics, while others may be more practical and skills-based. I try to balance insight with support, helping you understand your emotional world with more clarity, flexibility, and self-trust.
