About me

I offer a warm, compassionate space where your experience matters and your pace is respected. Here, there’s room for what’s heavy, confusing, or painful - without the pressure to have the perfect story or the right words. My priority is understanding what feels most alive or most difficult for you and supporting you in finding clarity, ease, and a deeper understanding of yourself over time.

Who I Work With

I work with both children and adults, with a special focus on people who may:

  • feel overwhelmed by anxiety, panic attacks, or low self-worth
  • struggle with grief, identity questions, or life transitions
  • live with autism or ADHD and want support that acknowledges neurodiversity
  • wrestle with perfectionism, self-doubt, or inner criticism
  • experience challenges adapting to new cultures or roles as an expat
  • feel stuck in difficult relationship patterns, conflict, emotional distance, or family dynamics that feel painful or unresolved

You don’t need to already know exactly what you want to work on - often, awareness of discomfort or a desire for change is itself the beginning of meaningful work.

What to Expect in Therapy

Therapy with me is a collaborative journey. We’ll explore not just symptoms but the meaning behind them - how your thoughts, behaviors, and relationships interconnect with your sense of self and well-being. I draw from an integrative approach that blends evidence-informed practices with empathy and attunement to your unique needs. There’s no one-size-fits-all method here, instead, we co-create a path that fits you. I believe that people already have deep resources within them and sometimes they need a trusted space to access and strengthen those resources. Throughout our work together, you can expect:

  • non-judgmental listening and presence
  • grounding and regulation skills for anxiety or panic
  • support in processing grief, identity shifts, or transitions
  • exploration of perfectionism and inner critics
  • understanding and empowerment around neurodivergent experiences
  • gentle work around boundaries, communication, and relationship patterns

My aim isn’t just symptom relief - it’s helping you build a relationship with yourself that feels rooted in curiosity, self-compassion, and agency.

My Professional Background

I am a licensed psychologist with training and experience in supporting diverse clients across life stages and challenges. I stay informed by both research and lived human experience, and I integrate therapeutic tools that meet you where you are. Whether you come to therapy with a clear goal or a sense that “something feels off,” I will support you in making sense of your inner world in a grounded, respectful way.

Your First Step

Deciding to seek therapy takes courage, vulnerability, and hope, even if it’s quiet or uncertain. If something in you feels ready or even just curious, I invite you to reach out. You don’t have to have your story all figured out - you simply need the willingness to explore what’s possible for you. Together, we can find clarity, relief, and new ways of moving forward that feel authentic to your life.
