Nice to meet you

I support adults and young adults navigating anxiety, perfectionism, trauma, grief, life transitions, parenting, and relationship challenges. My style is warm, compassionate, and genuine, with thoughtful use of humor. I offer practical tools and space for parents to explore how their experiences shape their roles. I help adults process grief from loss or unmet expectations, and support young adults facing identity, self-doubt, and pressure. Clients often say they feel truly seen and safe as they begin to respond to life from a more grounded, empowered place.
