Nice to meet you
I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I believe every emotion carries a message, and together we explore its meaning to uncover self-awareness and healing. Life often pressures us to hide our true selves, creating stress and disconnection. I help clients reconnect with their authentic selves, align with their values, and find emotional freedom. Using a trauma-informed, strength-based approach, I provide a safe space for growth and resilience.
