Hey there!

Whether you’re a parent trying to navigate the challenges of raising teens, a teen yourself, a new mom in need of some space to breathe, or someone juggling career stress, anxiety, or burnout, I’m here to help. Life’s tough, but it’s also full of possibilities for growth and change.

In our work together, you’ll get the tools, support, and understanding you need to feel more connected to yourself, more confident in your choices, and more ready to move through life’s challenges. Let’s make this journey a little smoother and a lot more empowering.

You deserve it.

lets work on…

  • Academic and Career Stress

    So. Much. Pressure.

    Pressure to perform, succeed, or "figure it all out" can leave you feeling anxious, stuck, or disconnected. Whether you’re a student, young professional, or somewhere in between, lets manage stress, clarify goals, and build a healthier relationship with achievement.

  • Relationships

    Whether you're navigating conflict, people-pleasing, or figuring out who you are in the mix, relationships can be complex. Lets build stronger communication, set healthy boundaries, and feel more grounded in your own needs and values.

  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

    Stuck in a cycle of obsessive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, rumination? Together, we can challenge those patterns and find peace, step by step.

    Lets face your fears!

  • Anxiety

    Lets untangle anxious thoughts, understand your triggers, and build practical tools to feel more in control. Together, we’ll work on calming your nervous system, challenging the “what ifs,” and creating more space for ease, confidence, and clarity in your everyday life.

  • Depression

    Depression can feel heavy—like you’re stuck in fog, disconnected from yourself, and just going through the motions. I help people reconnect with their inner light, rebuild self-worth, and take small, meaningful steps toward feeling like themselves again. You don’t have to stay in survival mode.

  • Parenting Teens

    Parenting teens isn’t easy—they’re changing, pushing boundaries, and figuring themselves out. I support parents in staying grounded, strengthening connection, and parenting from a place of clarity and confidence. With the right tools and support, you can navigate this season with more calm, compassion, and connection.

  • Mommas

    You’re the one holding it all together—but who’s holding space for you? Whether you’re juggling school drop-offs, work deadlines, or the emotional weight of motherhood, I help moms reconnect with themselves, set boundaries that feel good, and release the guilt that says you have to do it all. You deserve support, rest, and a chance to feel empowered—not just as a mom, but as you.

  • Burnout

    When you’re burned out, everything feels like too much—even the things you used to enjoy. I help people slow down, untangle the overwhelm, and reconnect with what actually fuels them. Together, we’ll work on setting boundaries, honoring your needs, and finding your way back to a life that feels more balanced.
