Nice to meet you
I’m so glad you’ve chosen to pursue therapy, and I’d be honored to support you on your journey to mental wellness. I work with adults experiencing difficulty coping with life transitions related to pregnancy, career, and aging. These may include grief, health issues, relocating, work-related stress, and more. Together, we’ll challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, identify triggers, and find coping strategies to improve your life. We’ll work at your pace to build resilience and create meaningful change.
