Therapy

Clients describe me as "telling you the hard truths when you need to hear them." If you’re looking for a therapist who will be direct and not sugarcoat things (while we laugh together), you’re in the right place. Life can sometimes feel harder than it should, leaving you stressed, unsatisfied, or unsure of your next steps. You’re not alone in these feelings, and I’m here to help. Together, we’ll tackle your challenges, find clarity, and create a plan that aligns with your goals and dreams. Let’s work toward building a life you truly love.

Are you in your 20s, navigating the challenges of adulthood? Struggling with a complicated relationship with your mom and wondering how to maintain boundaries while keeping her in your life? Choosing a child-free path but feeling unsure where you fit? Feeling depressed and anxious due to past trauma? We can figure out next steps together.

Clients come to me because they appreciate honesty and straightforwardness. I will tell you like it is but we will laugh along the way. I am always an active participant in our sessions. I'll be right there with you, ensuring you're not left to figure things out on your own.

What you’ll get

  • Straight Talk, With Heart


    I’m not the type to nod and smile while you stay stuck. I’ll be real with you—gently but honestly—because you deserve more than vague advice. We’ll get to the point, with warmth and maybe even a laugh or two along the way.

  • A Safe Space to Be Fully You


    No judgment, no pressure, and no need to have it all together. However, you’re showing up today—that’s welcome here. We’ll make space for it and work through it together.

  • Support That Actually Helps


    You won’t get fluff or generic self-help talk. We’ll focus on what’s actually going on in your life and build real tools that work for you, not just what the internet says should work.
