If life feels like a lot right now — whether you’re deep in the newborn chaos, riding the emotional rollercoaster of being a teen, or just exhausted from trying to hold it together — you're in the right place.

I’m a therapist who’s also a mom, a former perfectionist, and someone who’s had to learn (the hard way) how to slow down, ask for help, and stop trying to do it all.

When I had my daughter, I thought I was ready. I planned everything down to the detail... and then she showed up three weeks early. I had an unexpected C-section, a messy start to breastfeeding, and more sleepless nights than I could count. That season completely rearranged me. It also gave me a new kind of strength — the soft kind. The kind that knows rest is part of the work.

Now, I work with teens, moms, and women who are going through their own version of that messy middle — the part where things feel confusing, emotional, or just way too loud inside your head.

Therapy with me isn’t about being “fixed” — it’s about figuring out what actually helps you feel like yourself again (or maybe for the first time). We’ll talk, cry, laugh, breathe, and make space for whatever needs attention. No pressure, no judgment. Just real support.

I offer a gentle therapeutic space to help you rediscover your strength, embrace rest as part of healing, and gently process birth and postpartum experiences.

Therapy for Teens Aged 15+

Teenagers today are under more pressure than ever—balancing school, social media, identity struggles, anxiety, and uncertainty about the future. I provide therapy for teens ages 15 and up, creating a calm, judgment-free space where they can talk openly, explore emotions, and build healthy coping skills. Whether they’re feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or just need someone to talk to, I help teens feel seen and supported.

Support for Moms & Women

Busy moms and women balancing multiple roles—work, family, societal expectations—often feel drained and unseen. I help you slow down, ask for support, and reconnect with your true self. Therapy isn’t about “fixing”—it’s about making space to breathe, reflect, and move forward without pressure.

“Healing is not just about feeling better. It’s about being more whole - in your body, in your story, and in your community.” – Adrienne Maree Brown
